Smile Foil Delete with PICS

Did the Foil Delete, and it only took 1 hour for the project. I pulled the foil off then used a wire brush on a drill and it took must of it off then I used starter fueled to remove the glue, the glue would just wipe off with the stater fueled. it is not polished but I'm going to paint it so it is good for me. I can only hear a small difference in the sound but it sound good. What kind of paint did you use?

Clean is right !. 1 hour? You are a fast polisher.. Took me that long to get the foil off..

I used regular yellow rustoleum and then sprayed clear on them two summers ago. Still looks good.
