I just shot my car today with BC/CC. On the last coat of clear, I guess I did not put enough on. Will wetsanding help or should I wait til I have some more $$$ and reclear the car in spring??

If I reclear in spring what prep should I do when I do re-shot? :(

Are you saying the surface is rough or has a lot of orange peel? If you have enough material wetsanding and buffing will help, otherwise sand with 400 and respray. Make sure the final coat is nice and evenly wet, it's the one that counts.

well, u could try buffing it out real good, and if that don't work, then u may need to re-clear it.
