Hello folks. This is my first post. I used universal clear on the last truck I did and am very pleased. I just ordered the clear for my next 2 jobs.
I have always hand sanded when I color sand. The last job i did i decided to step out of the stone ages and use an orbital for scratch refinement after i had the peel hand cut flat. It was painted with 3 wet coats of universal clear over red single stage
I used my hitachi electric random orbital plugged into a gfci cord. I damp sanded using a spray bottle of water with a couple drops of dawn in it. I used red label abrasive wet dry paper 1500 grit with a 1/2" foam interference pad. I wound up getting a bunch of pigtails. I dont think I had a ton of trash in the job that was drug through, so I was almost thinking it was the clear balling up.
What abrasive and methods are you guys that are having success using?
Thanks
Lynn
