  • New paint with clear coat, smoothing imperfections and overspray.

    Motorcycle , fiberglass track bodywork,I've spent 30+ hours sanding, priming, and wet sanding + time for actual spraying. It is rattle can and it is clear coated with 3 coats. I'm finally on glaze last step which is a final wet sand or rubbing and then polish or glaze. Here's where I need the pro help. I uave some slight orange peel an a little clear overspray which you can see and feel.Do I wet sand with 2500 or go after it with UC which I've already purchased? And what product/method do I use for polishing and or glazing? I cannot wax for 2-3 months as the paint still needs to cure and "breath" so I'm exposed to mother nature, chunks of hot rubber, and minute track debris. This is only track bodywork and many would just spray it sloppily and call it good but I'm a bit more picky an I also have to match the factory finish on Tue tank and seat panels. Thanks in advance.

      Wait a week and wetsand it lightly with 2000, followed by 2500 git. Might need 1500 in some areas. Than Polish it with UC/swirl-x/205/105/80 ect.
