I just finished spraying my '70 Datsun 240z with single stage acrylic urethane, no clearecoat. Some orange peel in places which I plan on color sanding and cutting/buffing, no problems there.
But a couple of spots like the deep dish headlights are stumping me. My wool buffer is fine on flat panels, but what's the best method for getting into tight/concave areas to cut/buff? A mini buffing wheel of some sort?
Cutting/buffing tight areas?

Hi! In these tight areas the best way to do it is by hand. I would use 1500 w/d to color sand it then up that to 2000. Then use a rubbing compound and follow with a machine glaze. If you can find a small 3" sanding /buffing system that would work best. But that's expensive. The cheapest way would be to do it by hand. But that will take time as well. lol This is what I'm talking about. Just showing for info purposes. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00C7JXRY ... mdp_mobile If I could make a recommendation, in the future intercoat your single stage with clearcoat on the last cost. It will provide a much higher DOI, extra UV protection, and extra mills for cutting and buffing later on. Hope it helps you! Tammy Tamco https://www.facebook.com/TamcoPaint
