Absolutely. It's been done a couple of times along with the door jambs under the hood and trunk. If it's metal it gets polished. I did number 20 yesterday and 21 goes on tonight. Also keep in mind when I polish the car I polish the rims. These gt500 rims take 1/2 hr were the Roushers took 10mins

Yup. First try not to drive on wet roads ie spray etc. If this should happen wipe everything you can reach with a soft cloth. I personally polish all the metal under the hood and apply Meguires rubber and vinyl treatment on the hoses and plastic. STAY AWAY FROM RAIN and ******ESPECIALLY F**KING SNOW or you will be shot:laughhard Oh and if you have a bad back it will take more than 1 attempt trust me
