The wifes not to happy with me right now. I tried to get some overspray off her car. It wasn't coming off with compounds so I figured a little wet sanding with some 1000 grit would work, then just polish it out. Well the the wet sanding worked the polishing did not. Paints pretty dry about 20 years old. Its 2 small areas(8" circles) top of the trunk in the corners. Haven't hit it with any buffers yet. I didn't use much pressure at all so they are pretty fine scratches, its just a dark blue and it looks like hell.
I used to wet sand with 1000 grit and polish all the time but that must have been in another life. I've got some 2000 I could try, then get the orbital buffer on it. I'm just a little gun shy right now.
