Hi, i have just painted my first car with bc/cc, wet sanded it and it came out awesome! I am now painting another car but it is a 2 pack paint i am having to use. Can 2 pack be wet sanded aswell or even could i shoot the 2 pack and lay some cc over the top? What would be the best way?

Yeah, i think you guy's may call it 2k, sorry, we call it 2-pack paint in scotland! It will just be a primer and then the 2k to finish it off.

2k primer can be wetsanded. If you're talking about a color coat, you don't want to sand it, if you have to remove defects before clearcoat do it dry and as little as possible. Automotive clear is 2K and can be wetsanded. Or maybe you're talking about single stage paint, in which case sanding wet or dry isn't a good idea.
