Cquartz curing on the paint

The stuff is a ball ache to use, you only have 30ml to do the whole car and the bottle leaks.
And wiped off

And just some random reflection shots of the car as I was going along doing panels.
The Cquartz added very little to the car in terms of gloss, sharpness or colour, I'd say marginal improvements all around. But the surface was pretty slick to start with, not many defects to hide.

Kidneys showed some oxidization, cleaned that up with Megs Metal Polish.

And just some more general reflection shots.
I didnt coat the side skirts as I am not happy with them, will redo another time. Also need to finish off the side trim and reattach. No plastics, rubber, or glass work has been done yet, so dont judge me of it looks abit off.
Also the camera seemed to really struggle to focus in the last few, I think its bit buggered.
