Re: [A/S] Polishing Question

One question you have to answer is the clearcoast drying up and flaking 
off.  If it is then you will have to first strip it off to get a uniform 
finish on your skin.  Use a paint remover for this.  Many have recommend 
Bix.   I would then polish with Rolite Metal Polish.  If you want a 
bright mirror finish then polish again with the Rolite AP300.  If you 
want to put a seal coat over your polish   a good auto paint sealer will 
help.  Rolite has an auto paint sealer I have used but  I can't say how 
long it will hold up but it is an easy wipe on hand polish off procedure. 
 Might check my web site shown below for section on my polish experience. 
 Might give you some insight.  If you cleancoast is not coming off I 
would suggest getting some Walbernizer finish and treating the clearcoat. 
 It will bring up some luster as well as help the clearcoat remain 
flexible.  But with an early 70's model I suspect half of your clear coat 
is probably flaked off.
