    Anyone any experience with this stuff?

    A while back I resprayed my drivers door but I made a mess of the laquer clear coat.
    It's as hazy as hell as I did not apply it heavy enough. Instead of attempting to re laquer it again I am hoping this product will be able to cut into the laquer and smoothen it out to bring up a deeper gloss finish... As it is the finish feels rough when i run my hand across it, some parts of it feel ok but for the most part it isn't.

    Am I right in thinking I can straighten this out with some elbow grease?

    Thanks

    It might restore a bit of gloss to the door, but I don't think it'd have enough bite to remove any kind of hazing.

    maybe use rubbing compound first?? im no expert but when i sprayed a spoiler for my car i used 2000 wet and dry on the lacquer followed by rubbing compound followed by a good polish and sealed it with a wax.
