Re: From ultimate dam machine to Sheer of driving pleasure - detailienised by KC's &

KC, salute! Great work bringing back the paint, interior and trims back to its former glory. BTW, was that paint chip from the bumper? Would touch up paint and clear coat do any good? Do we need to compound/polish after touch ups?
