Will try. But is it really the tootiepaste that made the difference between frosted look at night and clear look? Did you also sand that light?

Yup. Toothpaste. It's a lot of work by hand which is why I skimped. I noticed a drill run kit at Autozone. When I do it again I've decided to do it that way to reduce manual labor. If I went manual again I'd also start at 2000 grit and get even finer paper as the 400 and 1500 hundred eliminate the yellow fast, but leave sanding scratches that take time to remove.
