Wet sanding my clio 197 has started

[martinclarkie]

Hello im a very keen detailer and live on this forum and detailing world ,
Love my clio to bits, got it mega shinny with polish etc but the orange peel was a massive let down for me i wanted a mirror reflection, this is my second car ive wet sanded it takes alot of time and effort but for me the results are worth it.

thanks martin.











Thanks.

I like my detailing, but I'd never try wet sanding on my car. Fair play to you!

Looks amazing dude.

[martinclarkie]

to be honest mate I'm not really a professional just love car cleaning, i would be more than happy to show you what to do and the tools you need, its a expensive game, 2 polishers all the correct pads etc etc.

wish i knew how to do this! I could see it ending in tears for me though... haha

I did this on my old car and the results you can get are stunning! I did however find the paint on my 197 a complete nightmare to machine polish, seemed hard to get the scratches out yet I could put swirls back in with a clean but average quality microfibre! The paint seemed really soft but hard to polish - hence me never trying wet sanding for fear of not being able to remove scratches!

Which polishes and pads were you using to remove the wet sand marks? Also, which grade of paper were you using?

put me in a reflective mood has that :thumbsup:
