I painted my car over 4 years ago and with focusing on the engine, getting married & buying a house, I never got around to wet sanding or polishing - even waxing. So it lost gloss and became more of a satin green, which was kind of cool.
Then at SEMA I saw satin cars everywhere and thought about repainting mine to be glossy. I don't have the time to paint it right now, so I wet sanded it and polished over the weekend.

After:
Now I feel the car is worthy of the new wheels I have waiting to go on
Going to go a little lower first though.
I'll probably keep it like this for a year or so, but still plan on stripping the whole car back down to it's shell for a complete new color eventually.
