Re: Clear coat truck prep

Yes, had a well known body shop put a new b/c paint job on it a couple years back. Even though I specifically asked to leave it as it came out of the spray gun, that’s not what I got. He wet sanded and buffed it. It looks great in the shade. In the sun, there are deep buffing swirls all over the truck. I do body work and paint as a hobby, but was laid up at the time with health issues so I had him do it. I’ve since tried every which way and every suggestion to try and remove the swirls. They just aren’t coming out. I want to scuff and put one good coat of clear over it and be done. I can paint, it will look good. I have just never done this and wasn’t sure what I could get away with for wet sanding and still have enough tooth for the new clear to adhere to.
