Message	other vehicles I have done this process on. I hit my current Z with 400 grit paper as I was originally going to repaint it, however, after hitting it with 400, although there was haze in it (obviously) the surface was pretty free of defect. I then followed up with 600, then 1000, then 3000 and then buffed it at 2800RPM. The finish was beatiful. [ ashspecz.com ] [ agpowers@bellsouth.net ] Enthusiasts soon understand each other. --W.
