New guy here, the resto shop I work at was looking to try a new clear and with my urging we just started using/trying Universal.
All I do is cut and buff the paint at the shop and am not the painter. I work closely with him and try to help as much as I can. We have a quote beside our booth from the movie Gladiator that reads “ whatever comes out of these gates you must deal with”. Its been challenging with the new stuff for sure.
Im having trouble getting a glass finish out of the clear. It seems there is a texture to it when looked under the detail lights.
After a few days curing outside I cut with 800 then they spray 3 more coats on. Cure again a few days then use a 11” durablock with 600 to get rid of peel and wave ( painter getting lots of peel even with exact adjustments recommend for the gun but he is working on it) then 1000, 1500, 2000,2500, 3000 and buff. I use rotory on 1000-1400 rpm with 3m white foam and 3D ACA compound.
is there something in my process or technique that is not correct? Need to cure more in between these steps?
Any help and criticism is invited. Thanks.
