    So, I have a spot on my mirror which got missed some how. It has been curing for a couple days, and wondering if I can just touch it up with a new cloth or is there a "process"?

    I did something similar on my last truck's mirror and it seemed to do ok. I went over the entire thing to make sure. @War Machine , did you have or do something similar?

    I haven’t had a ton of success going back over missed / bad spots. It looks better, but it doesn’t really blend. Unfortunately this is a “get it right the first time” product. No reason not to try it though.

    I used the trim coating on different parts of a FJ Cruiser I had before and the stuff is very tricky since you cures like a ceramic coating and you pretty much can go over it in one direction and FAST. I would almost try to remove the old stuff and just use a polisher to go over the mirror housing itself, but that is me.
