yes the old scubing bubbles . does a good job but im preping my snowflakes for paint and polishing then reclearcoating slowly starting to redo my car . one thing at a time gotta do it right and stop any rust before it starts. so far the surface rust is just starting on it so its time to nip it in the butt before i gets me . lol
