Hi, I did use the orbital sander with 2000g paper and lots of water and did this as good as I could
(avoiding the pig tails, sanding by hand was a failure- too many scratches).
Then I used 400g, 600g and 800g lapping compound on a polishing cloth and
could get it smooth and even a bit shiny (don't ask me why 400g paste is finer than 2000g sandpaper)
Then I used a portercable orbital polisher and used speed cut, 1200g polish and then the final fine polish....
I had to go back once in a while in oder to remove 'bigger' scratches which I could not see after sanding.
I learned at least how to sand down orange peel clear coat and turn my spaying mess into a good quality surface.
