- After BC/CC, wet sand 1500-2000g (1000g if bad orange peel or trash); *will i have to sand BC?

I'm just trying to understand what grits to use within each section.

Thanks.
Is there any filler on the body under the primer? What did you sand it out to?

The rule in sanding is to use the lowest grit possible when first sanding to flatten the peaks. Everytime you shoot material the peak are there if you don't get them knocked down the finish will be wavvvvvyyyy.

Using the correct blocks behind the sandpaper is key as well. Hard long blocks at first, then graduating to softer smaller.

Now how many coats of primer are you going to spray? How many coats of clear?
