    Hi subarudriver,

    Welcome to Meguiar's Online!

    Are you working on a factory clear coat?
    Have you ever wet-sanded a car before?
    Have you ever used a rotary buffer before?


    I'm getting ready to upload some photos to this thread,




    Maybe someone can did up a thread where this type of question has been answered before? (I know I've typed it up about a dozen time! )

          Well in a nutshell,

          It's usually not a good idea to learn how to wet sand, cut and polish on something that's important to you. It's better to learn how on a car that nobody cares about.

          Putting scratches into paint is easy, (wet-sanding), removing all of the sanding marks without making a mistake is a little more difficult.

              Mike is correct...

              The only reason I posted that link, was becuase in your post you stated you needed prof meguiars line for my machine rotary I had assumed since you had one, you knew how to use it..

              Sorry for the confusion..
