the chances are wetsanding is not necessary, you could most likely fix your paint with some intense polish and a heavy pad… ---

Have him do a panel/section in an inconspicuous area and then approve it before he goes any further. Can you post some before and after pics when its done and if your friends interested in wet/buffing mine? ---

I learned that most places won’t wetsand/buff an outside job just because their unfamiliar with the paint, amount of coats, etc. and could damage the job and its time consuming to have one of their guys spend a few days just to buff a car. I been told its best to have whoever painted it do it and dont waste any time before the paint completely hardens and is less manageable to wetsand/buff. ---
