Default No more flares
I had some time on Saturday and decided it was time to refinish my faded, pitted fender flares. After removing them, I've decided I like the look and might leave them off.

The residue was a pain to deal with, and definitely the most time consuming part of the project. I used a 3m eraser wheel on my drill along with SEMSolv. I finished with 1500 grit wet sanding to get the rest.
