Sanding marks

In certain circumstances, the recommended sanding methods up to now are no longer suitable for light metallic color shades. Wet sanding with grade P1200 paper or a grey sanding pad can cause sanding scratches which can become very visible under certain lights.

In order to achieve an excellent paint result on difficult color shades, follow these working rules:

  • Sand filler as before, rub down area to be painted with 3M ultra fine matting sponge and 3M matting gel.
  • Sand filler as before, rub down area to be painted with soaked 3M wet sand paper P1500 - P2000.
  • Sand filler as before, rub down area to be painted with 3M 260 L P1000 eccentric (Interface Pad).
