I've been sprucing up the GP a bit,

Got quite a shiny finish using 1k paint from Lambretta paints in rattle cans. Once it's cured a bit are you supposed to polish over the top of it?

Polishing it won't do any harm, but give it a couple of weeks before you do.

1k cures by solvent evaporation, so you need to let it fully gas off before applying anything that seals it.

Auto glym paint renovator is mildly abrasive and will help to iron out any imperfections you may have , then use a good quality polish to ' buff ' it up ;)
