G'day to all, Matt here, just did my first envirotex finish, came out pretty good, however it is slightly dull in places. It looks like it would polish out very easy, just wondering what you envirotex masters use, to polish the finished coated enclosure, Juansolo, feel free to comment mate ;D, thanks, Matt.

I'm using an iPad, so currently it's hard to flip back and forth, but there is a tutorial on enviro that may have the answer you're looking for, I believe it to be a car wax of some sort.
Thanks for the reply Jimi, i did see the tutorial and read the bit about the car polish, was just a little concerned i might f@#k it up, as it mostly looks good. I thought that the car polish might be too abrasive? I'm not looking to remove runs, just to shine it up in places. Please feel free to comment folks, thanks, Matt.
Hey! I got a great tip here on using toothpaste! No kidding! I did woth an acrylic coatumg and looked great! Its not much abrasive and no worries about the smell! Later u can use a mild car polish to bring some gloss .
I never used enviroyex but ive read about it! Its epoxy resin and this thung is very resistent! Go ahead!!

Cleggy is the master of 'tex. But he wet sands them with a sanding block I believe, then poish with T-Cut follwed by regular car polish, I think.

Car polish that is very very mildly abrasive.
