This is a show car and the painter put eight coats on the car. Because of the number of coats the peel is BAD. So I busted it with 800 wet first. I just want to make sure I hit ALL the 800 scratch with the next few grits. I thought maybe a guide coat would aid in this process. I would hate to go through the process to find I missed a few 800 scratch marks.

8 coats? If I had done it would have got a sanding in the middle and never would have laid 8 coats in one painting. How long has it sat because with that much clear it will definitely shrink back and what looked perfect after a cut and buff may not look perfect in 6 months. I have started with 600 before, but normally I start around 800 or 1000 depending on how much peel there is. You could guide coat it, but have never done or wanted too.
