Dale_ta22 Regular Location: Forster NSW Registered: September 2004	Re: Orange peel and other assorted questions Tue, 14 June 2005 09:45 What grade of paper did you use? You ideally want 1200 grit, and put a bit of dishwashing detergent or other soap in your water. The trick when rubbing back is to work small areas, lets say 20x20cm squares. Sand away at it for a while then wipe it off with a squeegee, this lets you see any valleys that you haven't sanded out, repeat until it's all good, then move on to the next area, it's a slow process. It will take a good while to cut right through (by this i mean likely 5+ minutes in one spot) so don't be too worried unless it's near edges. Give it a light wash (just with a hose and a sponge) after sanding it back, to get any sanding grit cleaned off before buffing it out I use a 7 inch grinder with a lambswool and cutting compound to buff it, comes up great just from that. And definitely glossier than it's even possible to get straight off the gun. Give it another wash after this too, the excess cutting compound hardens up and is a bastard to get off later. Don't spray more clear on! You won't need to once you figure where you've gone wrong... [Report message to a moderator]
