Thanks! (I'm Jeff, not Matt
). The car is its original color, garnet red metallic. The paint is a couple years old courtesy PO, and is a two stage w/clear coat. The finish was adequate; similar to a lot of new cars with a touch of orange peel. The wet-sand / polish brought it to something closer to a mirror finish. No problem with hurting it, as the clear coat was thick enough to withstand the sanding.
A few posts above you will find my description of the process ... a bit long winded, but may help if you want to try it yourself.
