Again, I prefer 3,000 grit wet/dry (AUTOMOTIVE) sandpaper for wetsanding.



Yet, you can use a simple polishing compound to take out most minor scratches in the clearcoat, and you might not even need the wet/dry at all.

Has your mechanic worked in the autobody business in the past as a painter? If not, it's kind of like asking your dentist to perform your brain surgery.
