Message: [QUOTE="Rodslinger, post: 305600, member: 1003"] Cutting the clear hours after painting will polish a lot easier. If you wait to polish it after it fully cures, you can cut out any shrinkage or sand scratch swelling. Now if you've prepped it correctly and waited the correct flash times between coats, you should not have much shrinkage. Our show jobs get 3 coats of clear then baked. Next day get cut with 800 wet then recleared, wet sanded with 1000,1500 then 3000. If its black we go to 5000. If its got heavy peal, hit it with 1200 to get it flat, then 1500 to get out the 1200 scratches buff it and call it a day. Hitting it with a 1500 or finer does not get it flat. Hope that helps.
