Interesting, thats what they taught us to use for paint and clear blends.

I ended up using 1000 before I painted my quarter panel. Came out looking really nice, but I noticed (after 2 months) a tiny piece just flaked off, and saw the primer beneath it. I’m sure it was caused by that. I think a 600, maybe 4 even would be good to paint over and have it hold. Either one shouldnt reveal ridges when the new coat is applied.

Ahwell, thats the good thing about paint, you can just re do it and learn from it. I’m _just_ starting to learn about painting, fun stuff.
