flyfisher 6 2 Cars Posted January 11, 2012 if you have to do it by hand start by useing a block and 240 wet n dry going down to 600 wet n dry to have a nice base for your primer then flat down with 800 wet n dry degrease dry mask and colour coat but best if you could get a d. a sander and 240 dry sand it off. hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M@tt 77 Posted January 11, 2012 These abrasive pads are good for surface prep especially on contoured surfaces http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Painting+Decorating/Sanding+Paper/Sponge+Abrasive+Pads+100g+Meduim/d150/sd1730/p39338 http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Painting+Decorating/Sanding+Paper/Contour+Sanding+Pads/d150/sd1730/p10736 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
