me and my brother buffed on my truck this weekend before the Mississippi meet. It turned out great but needs to be cut and/or wet sanded on the hood bc some water spots just would NOT come out and were etched in there pretty good. The only thing I have is my windows. So im going to try the vinegar deal..
