So I worked on the car 9am to 6pm, needless to say I'm tired. I ended up using Quick Sealant instead of the Machine Sealant only because I had been working on the car so long and I had a blister on each hand from the PC I'm guessing... so I didn't want to go over the car another time. Everything came out great being that this was the car's first correction in 3 years of ownership except that I couldn't get the overspray off the trim or the mirrors. I'm going to try again later with IPA or maybe even the last recommendation from another company. Thanks Adam for all the great products! Pics to come soon.

So....I put this off for way too long and started to tackle the job today. I stripped the car with Dawn, I've clayed the whole car and after several hours, my hands hurt. lol The paint, glass, and lights look pretty good, but I'm having trouble cleaning the window trim, cowl, and side mirrors as they're unpainted. I'm going to try to use some 50/50 APC first, if that doesn't work I'll try IPA. Here's hoping! Oh, and after correcting, machine super sealant....but I have to wait a day? to put any glaze on it correct? Also I can put American on top right? Sorry for all the questions! Thanks in advance!

No, it means the south area of Texas.

LOL <<--- one of the few times I mean it

Thanks for the posts everyone. I'm going to try to tackle this job on the weekend. I'll be sure to post before and after pics.

Sorry, I edited my post to say I did test an area using a clay bar and it worked. Wanted to see if there's was anything I should be aware of doing such a project.

Ok guys and girls, the wife's 2009 Chevy Cobalt got covered from front to back in white paint overspray while parked at work. The guilty party has cut everyone a $400 check to clean up the vehicles. So instead of chancing someone else screwing up the car, I decided to keep the money and do it myself and getting a PC kit. I've already tested removing the damage on the glass and a test area on the paint and it's coming off without a problem with a claybar and detail spray. Any tips or tricks on the process of doing the whole car? There's even spray on the black window trim and wiper cowl. Any help would be helpful, thanks in advance! Alex

Thanks Mayben! Happy Early Birthday to you bigaudiofanatic BTW...I was willing to pay for the Metro, I didn't mean I wanted it for free lol.

If anyone is upgrading and wants to get rid of their sidekick please let me know! Did I mention my birthday is on the 28th?

Great job and car! I have a 2011 SX in Corsa Blue....check out OptimaForums.com if you're not there yet!

X2 I just met up with Jason again yesterday and got a great deal!

Too bad I missed out but very nice of you! I'll get mine some day lol.

I think keeping the smaller bottle would help you keep a "fresh" bottle available instead of having a big bottle sitting around for awhile.

Jason Toscano - TX Dealer posted up on TexasRacers.com ....caught my interest....came to the forums here and had to give it a try.

Sounds about right.....except the dui part lol. It's funny how that works.
