Here's my plan for the next week or so.

1) Let the paint sit until Tuesday to completly dry and cure and whatnot.
2) Use some Mother's clay bar to get the over spray off
3) Clear coat the area
4) Let it sit a few days to properly dry and everything
5) Wash and dry
6) Buff the entire trunk/most of left 1/4 panel with Finish Restorer


Sound like a good way to do things??? :dunno:

yea, rubbing compound is like 3k-4k grit sandpaper except comes in a liquid. used with terry cloth towel and it blends the paint it and shit. but finish restorer is a bit finer. heres what im doing to mine so far...

THat looks about like what I had before any painting. I'm thinking about just leaving the "H" symbol and maybe painting it over gloss black. I think it'd look kinda cool to just blend in with everything else...and then when some sun bounces off of it you see it's an H. Maybe I'm just a ricer in sheeps clothing.
