Here is my test piece. This was the first time I have ever really tried to paint/wetsand anything, and the results show.





There are a lot of marks and variations in the paint where I did not wetsand enough. I am not sure if you can see it in these pictures or not, but the scratches from sanding are evident. I used 600 after the first two coats, 800 after the second two, and 1000 after the final two. Any suggestions on how to wetsand better? How do you wetsand the corners and edges? Even though my wetsanding was subpar, I still hit it with some 3M rubbing compound, some polish I had in the garage, and my cheapo single-speed polisher. I was surprised with the shine and smoothness I got. I had very little orange peel. It looks great from 5 feet away.



My camera isn't very good and it was late in the day when I took the pics. The color is Rustoleum Navy Blue.
