Cheers Cobra!:thumbs:
Why the hell did the MaxPower worx card say to sand the laquer with 1200 if you don't need to?:mad:

I'll try T-Cutting it again and then use a good polish to bring out most off the shine.:|

I bought the recent edition of Max Power and in the Worx section it tells you how to paint plastic. So I decided to have a go and paint the boot lock surround. I sanded, primed, painted, sanded and then laquered. Now after allowing the laquer to dry it says that I must sand the laquer with 1200 to take the shine off it and then use T-Cut to bring back the shine. I tried this and I can still see where I used the 1200 on the laquer. :mad:It looks like I'll have to start again.

Is there any experts on here that can confirm Max Powers information correct?
