    Wow nice save.

    I imagine that you had to back those 300 sanding marks out with an insane amount of different grits.

    Did you crawl to 600 then 1000? And so fourth

    Nope....Menz FQ400 and 2500 with my flex. hit it a few times with each. It's not as perfect as the pics show but still in better shape now than the rest of the car. all in all everyone's happy

    I knew when I saw the title that hadn't ended well...what was the reason he decided to sand it? And it's a good thing it was just a beater car, eh?

    he said there some white specs on the paint he couldn't get out.

    After the fact i told him we could have probably removed them with clay or something very minor in terms of abrasiveness.

    Live and learn.

    Hey, you have to commend him for being conscientious and trying to do a good cleaning job.
