    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
