RA28 Forums Junkie Registered: May 2002	Re: Orange peel and other assorted questions Tue, 14 June 2005 13:43 ...Cutting paint sucks balls! I'm doing mine too now, was my first spray and the whole thing was peeled, but I gave it 4-5 clear coats to make up for it. It looks damn ordinary to start with, but after sanding and buffing it comes up real nice. the more you buff the better the finish. I'm using 2000 grit paper, on a 1/3 sheet vibrating sander though, cause I got sick of rubbing. I san till all the 'shiny' dimples are gone (well, most of em anyway ) then rinse and dry it and then cut it with mcguire's Fine cut cleaner (comes in a beige bottle) I tried about 4 diff products, but I use it cause it's convinient being liquid, you just pop the cap and squirt it on. If you don't like the prioce tag, Polyglaze cut and polish gave just as good a finish, was just a pita pryin' the can open every 5 mins or so. You should be able to buff a better shine than is possible from a gun so don't be afraid to give it a go. if you're going to give it a few more clear coats you have to sand the peel out anyway. Tim.
