Good morning, I have completed the 1st stage of clear coat (3 coats of Production Clear) in the Perfect Paint Job. The next calls for wet sanding with 800. Should I wet sand the orange peel out before the next application of clear? Hard or soft block? Thanks in advance.
 
yes try and get it as smooth as you can. 800 is ok but on the fine side. 400-600 will work it flatter.
 
A hard block will cut flatter than a soft block, just depends what final product you expect. Most people would not be able to tell the difference, but it is there. Agree with Jim C on grits. I have gone as coarse as 320 with no issues.
