k so i just painted my bowtie and it has a couple of dust specks can i sand these off now that it's clear coated?
i think it is in the clear but i dont have a buffercan you feel the specks? and how many coats of clear are there, if the dirt is buried in the clear, it wont come out unless you sand a majority of the clear out but if its on top, just wetsand with 1000 or 1500 and then buff it out and you should be good
if you wetsand it, you might be able to buff it out by hand with some rubbing compound, ive never done it thoi think it is in the clear but i dont have a buffer
well i did wet sand it a lil but i'll try to sand some more. what if i sand all the way down to the paint and respray it. after its been painted should i wet sand and then clear coat or should i spray final coat of paint and then clear coat?its gonna look like that until you polish it, in the pics it looks like theres a bunch of orange peel so i would wetsand the whole thing, wipe it dry occassionaly and you will see where there is still orange peel in it, then use some rubbing compound and you should be good to go
