I used 3M rubbing liquid on the 50 year old paint. Looks much improved.

But on some pocked and/or rusty spots I sanded, primed, then used PaintScratch base and clearcoat.
Now after several days I'm trying to rub it down for a shine. No shine so far, so I'm asking how exactly to do it.
Here's what I did: 3M on an old t-shirt. Rub 'til dry, then wipe off with another t-shirt. Then polish with electric buffer and terry cloth cover. No shine.
Also tried using electric buffer for all the steps. No shine. Surface still feels "gritty" (not smooth) from the clearcoat - like it's not being completely removed.
Any suggestions out there?
Thanks.
Tom
