It does indeed - makes a handy receptacle for all the wires that come out of the top of the dash cam mirror.

New door handle covers they came in gloss black so more of the same. Rub down, undercoated, base coat, clear coat. Can't put the polisher on them but they came out pretty good with a final heavy coat of clear.

Practise my clear coat blend on my old bumper while I had the clear rattle can to hand.

Wet sanded a section.







Clear coat applied medium coat not to heavy.

Moving onto some minor blemishes on the body work before I repaint the roof.
Os rear door had some scabby clear coat peel I had previously wet sanded and sprayed a bit of base coat to protect it over winter.


Here it is before I gave it a wet sand.


I hit it with a lite dusting of base coat and let it dry.


Couple Coates of clear I'm please with it so far will give it a couple of days to harden properly then wet sand n polish it.

Found a warm dry day last week with almost no breeze so rattle canned the roof I rubbed it down the week before half of the roof was undercoat were it had lost paint.

Happy with the finish a few coats of base colour then 4 coats of clear. Gave it a wet sand couple of days later n polish will need to repeat but I'm happy with it.
