    yup, was a good discussion. Just color sand and buff. I usually do mine with 1500 wet paper after the paint is on for 24 hours and before it gets hard as a rock and takes way more effort to color sand......

    I stopped using PPG years ago because it hardened up faster than I could get the finish work done. By the next morning, it was already too hard!

    The timeline, and sandpaper and buffing materials, will depend on the paints you use, and shop temperatures.
