Yes we used a 6” orbital to wet sand the flat areas. I am not an expert painter but I understand that you have to find the best balance of reducer/hardener/and spray technique. More reducer will help the material flow out to a decent shine but too much reducer will result in “solvent popping” as it cures over the next 6 months. Any nice paint job I have seen required many hours of sanding/buffing. Today we removed all of the mask from the turquoise and masked the newly painted silver. Planning to paint turquoise tomorrow.
