so i finally decided to try this for myself. worked out well for the most part, but i did notice some hazing on a few panels. I got rid of some of them with Reload, but not all. What do you guys recommend is the best way i go about getting rid of them? Thanks

What do you mean by hazing? Which part of the process created this 'hazing' that you are referring to?
Thanks you! My sister who isn't a car person finally sees a big difference and was impressed with the outcome. She thought it is a new car. She now learns that detailing is a good thing haha. I told her to touch the paint before i detailed and then now. She was like yes it is like touching sand (before) vs. butter (now).
Yeah, the car is in the worst condition it can get lol. What do you mean "only" 20 hours ? How many hours do you estimate for this kind of transformation?
I expected 30+ hours to revive a zombie lol
Did you happened to work on the engine bay, interior and exhaust tips too?

I'm not sure if hazing is the right term. High spots maybe? I was able to polish almost of it away. My hood came out very ugly before the polish. The rest of the car came out Very nice. A couple of spots here and there but nothing like the hood lol

High spots from coating? That is possible... especially with CQUK.

so do you have any recommendations on how to remove the more stubborn ones? I tried hand polishing it very lightly since i was afraid of polishing off the coating itself after 2 days of curing. Today's the third day since i finished coating it on Saturday

If you have high spots, the only way to remove them is by polishing. You will then want to recoat those areas.
Even after it had two to three days to cure? It's been very hot and humid here in socal
Yes - these coatings are very thin. They average ~1.5 microns in thickness per layer, but may be more or less than that in any given spot. Polishing will degrade and potentially remove the coating in that spot, therefore it is best practice to recoat that area to ensure it is properly protected.
