Hey guys,
I am relatively new to painting/finishing. I have painted 2 different hulls now with the Klass Kote line of paints. The second of the 2 was just this weekend and it was my FE powered SS45. I used the orange paint with the gloss hardener. The paint job turned out OK but there are imperfections I would like to try and fix i.e. bugs, lint, dust specks, and couple rub marks. What options, if any do I have for this? Can I wet sand and then hand buff with a polishing compound without losing the gloss finish?
if so what do I start with 2000 grit wet? What polish can I use that will work by hand.
I am not looking to go crazy here; I just want to clean up the top surface of the hull minimizing the amount of time invested.
Thanks
Mike
