Unfortunately, our cars, with the age doesn't have much clear coat to play with. I'm now at the point where I can't polish my car anymore. Say hello to GLAZE.

In order to find out how much clear you got, you would need a paint thickness gauge. Check out "Highline Meter". If you got less than 3 Mils, I would stop polishing and invest some quality glazes.

Brian, next time your in town, give Dan @ Zen Motors a call. He brought back a coworker's black GS paint job back to life too, just like the OP's finish.
