Hi AB101 Community
I am almost finished with the car. I found out I had missed a few spots where I thought I had sprayed the paint completely but...
since this projects was kind of in a hurry well I will have to fix it later on.

the car was sprayed with Martin Seynour Dimensions base 56 Platinum. with solvent CR733
the color is black from 04-14 Buick.
Primer: FP720 from Sherwin Williams line Acme F1 FP410 with solvent FH411
Clear Coat: SW Acme F1 FC720 with solvent FH612

After the car was sprayed and allowed to dry for about 1 month 1/2, more like I was lazy.
I decided to wet sand the clear with a 2000 grit, then followed with a polishing product.
I used the 2000 because all the orange peel I saw looked smooth which was as result from me spraying too close to the car.

here are some pics before the wet sanding process:

once I decided it was time to go I started to sand it down by hand one piece at a time. I wet sanded then Polished the area done.
this is my Daily Driver so I didn't want to go back to old habits of starting to work on it and leave it half done.

I'll post more later

once the clear coat was sanded I went from this

to this

and finally this

and that is pretty much what I did to the whole car.
once I finish this project completely I'll see what else I can do with the new air compressor and the rest of the tools. :happy:

thanks for watching.
