Update: Currently, I just wet sanded down my car, and I'm at 2,000 grit. I washed the dirt off of my car, then use 600 grit to take out those big bumps, stepped up to 1000, then 2000 which is where I'm currently at. Today is Sunday, and I dont know any local automotive paint supplies that are open. The Napa paint warehouse/store on Florida Ave. should be open, yet I'm unsure that they carry thoes 3M pads like you all mensioned, I'll give them a call a.s.a I get done typing.

I remembering seeing a episode on tv, discovery channel, of a Lexus IS300 with a V8 swap. They did some serious sanding and glazing a few hours before it was displayed at the SEMA. This is what came to my thought about this type of clearcoating finish. Clearcoating a car doesnt require all this sanding/buffering, right? It's only required if you screw up like I did???
