Anyway, by following the (no-brainer) instructions the product went on slicker than Grace, although there should be a warning about the odor. Do NOT stick yer nose down to the can and take a deep whiff, trying to figure out where those rotten eggs must be, because you will pick yerself up from a heap in the far corner of the warehouse, mumbling something about "badgers 'n' grits" and other such nonsense.
Not me, mind you. That would be stupid. So I didn't do that. Honest.
But alas, after about 4 hours I had to drive home, the product totally dry to the touch. The instructions say "No wet stuff for 24 hours" and clouds are rolling in, but I had to chance it, hauled fanny for home and...it started to mist.
Not "Rain", 'zackly..."mist". Just a little.
Ratz. Oh well, nothing to be done but tough it out, make it home and assess the damage.
So I do. Get home. And assess the damage. Not too bad, but yeah, you can see the residue of some little droplets, maybe still a small amount of moisture on them, no telling if it's actually hurting or not. Like maybe if you had INTENTIONALLY spritzed just a wee bit of water on it with a spray bottle. Just a spritz.
So back to the dilemma, I think "Hairdryer?". Naaaah. "Hairdryer on cool?". Naaaah.
I grab a NEW, CLEAN microfiber cloth and do a bit of light buffing, staying with the grain of the brush strokes and...
WHOA! Dude, it looked darn good before, but now...it's PERFECT!
Oh, it's still there...no doubt about that...it's there all right, and just peachy, but...it's PERFECT! FACTORY!
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I said "LIGHTLY!". Zero elbow grease. Lovingly. Like caressing your...errrr...well, whatever your favorite thing is to caress...that bowling trophy on your mantle, for example.
Whatever.
VG, ya gotta give this a look-see...check it out. Seriously.
Ride safe,
