Thank, it was hard to put the painter tape and to peel it off without making a mistake but worth the 2 hours of work.

Yes definitely, I was thinking of using the glossifier but want to keep it satin finish for awhile, might change it up to gloss later. Yeah its a lot cheaper too, only $50 for 4 cans from dipyourcar.com

Yes definitely, save a few hundreds to a thousands by doing this way. wow that's good to know, Thought you have to redue it every few months. thanks for that info.
