I had (have) every intention of having my M3 repainted at some point. The car has been sitting for three years now. And I've recently started putting back together. I plan on driving it a little next summer.
But in the meantime I decided the best way to learn how to wet sand and polish paint is to jump right in and do it. No big deal if I make mistakes on this car at this point.
I started with a 600 grit then 1000, 1200, & now I'm up to 1500. I plan on finishing the sanding with 2000 then 3000.
Beyond the wet sanding I have a Porter Cable 7346 random orbital that I plan on polishing with. It spins up to 6800. Was going to use Meguiar's M105 and then M205.
Also, I'm looking for a good sanding block. the 3M one on Amazon has horrible reviews.
1/4 panel through 1200 grit.
Any advice is appreciated.
