Do not beat on the areas that will be exposed and hand polish those after graphics are applied. I don't think you should use a machine.
I put down about 7 - 8 light coats of paint but did get a little alligatoring but shot 3 - 4 light coats of clear anyway . My plan is to try and level the alligatoring and just clean up the slight orange peel . Then hand polish . If I have to reapply paint I will .
