Thread: smears in paint

If you have enough material on the car, just keep wet sanding till it gets smooth.... Betcha I'm not the only one here who's started the wet sanding process with 400 grit dry on a DA!!!!!

I know this might sound elementary, but be sure that you are using a sanding block while wet sanding. Believe it or not I have actually seen people wet sand without one, which produces less than desirable results!

Dave Brisco[/QUOTE Yes, I will agree for the less experienced, but you dont have to use one to get mighty fine results when cutting with 1400-1600 grit just to knock down the orange peel.

you guys keep referring to orange peel.

Typically caused by improperly thinned paint.
The paint ripples rather than 'laying down' properly
