hi all i just got the car painted white and i have seen a few POSTS OF PEOPLE THAT WETSANDED THEN POLISHED TO GIVE THE PAINT A MIRROR FINISH...HOW DO I DO THIS?????
and yes the car needs lowered and a set of rims in a bad kinda way thanks for the help

 

i might get flamed for this
but i kinda like the berlinetta rims
i think itll look good after its lowered with those rims.....of course even better with bigger ones

oh yeah i know nothing about wetsanding

 

JUST DO A SEARCH ON WETSANDING. YOUR QUESTION HAS BEEN ANSWERED SEVERAL TIMES AND THERE ARE STEP BY STEP INSTUCTIONS ON HOW TO WET SAND SO NO NEED FOR ME TO GUIDE YOU. IF YOU WANT YOUR CAR TO STAND OUT - WETSAND IT. AND WITH PATIENCE AND TIME YOU CAN DO THIS YOURSELF.

 

I'll asume you just got a 2pak paint job.
wetsand with 1200 OR finer using a colouring block(firm but flexes), add a little soap to your water which will aid slip, be very gentle of edges and corners. Use a machine buff with a foam pad @ about 1500rpm using a fine suitable cutter for your paint, I use Farecla G3. Then use a coloring/Glaze compound on a dimple pad (damp),I use 3M pads & "foam polishing pad glaze", there are 2 types 1 for dark paint & 1 for light colors. Make sure you wash well between every application as it splatters into cracks & crevises & the longer you leave it the harder it is to get off.
Its hard to tell you how far to block it (wetsand) without seeing your paint first hand & knowing how much paint they used.
polish by hand after you are done. After you are finished the most important thing to do is crack a can of beer & enjoy!!!
GOOD LUCK

 

Carefull now dont dull down your paint by taking sand paper to it.

 

thanks for the help ..im gona try it somewhere low to see if itll work for me or not
does anyone know how to change your user name?
:hail: :hail:

 

Change your user name? What did you quit junkie? lol. Tell you what try it on someone else's car first. Hehe....... Just ing

 

Jacko is spot on,I've seen the difference before and after on a coloursanded paint job and the difference is unreal.It can take a paint job from being very good to being stunning.When I do mine (painting still in progress) I will probably use 1500 or 2000 wet and dry (me being paranoid perhaps).Takes a fair while to do but well worth it.
