Fixing Hazing??
I was messing with designs on my new body, and finally drew one up, so I pulled the masking off, and it left a nasty residue. I went to grab the Goo gone, and accidentally grabbed the goof off. Now the body is partially hazed in one of the most visible spots on the car. Is there anyway to fix this? Or do i need a new body?

I did this one time and unfortunately I could not fix it. I tried wet sanding, polishing, etc. Lesson learned

Re: Fixing Hazing??
You can still repaint it, and it'll look decent, but unfortunately you can't fix hazing. That is actually affecting the inside of the Lexan and can't be fixed by polishing or other surface treatments.

It's not a total waste if you're not able to correct the problem. Just paint the outside and use the body for a runner. Just prime using polycarbonate paint then top it with rattle-can enamel or whatever you may have on hand.
