Nice, thread. I was just wet sanding my car last night with 600 grit too. I only wanted to remove the clearcoat so I could touch it up in some areas. It came out real nice, going to finish the other half tonight.

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Whoops, another thing to. When you are wet sanding, it helps to put a little (not a lot) dishwashing soap in your bucket of water. It assists with cleaning the area as you wet sand. Always keep the area you are working on wet. Th is also applies when engaging in sex. But the grit is different. posted_image
