I want to wet sand and use clear coat as well. How much size wise of sandpaper would i need (i know the grits i need) per car and is there a good bulk recommendation?

Sorry I can't answer your question directly but I can tell you the Griot's Garage headlight restoration kit comes with everything you need and is an amazing kit! I did my wife's old Mazda 6 over years ago and even though we got rid of that car towards the end of winter it looked as good as the day I did it and it supposed to last 2 years, so Griot's Garage is sandbaggin' a bit IMO[emoji931][emoji931]

You can alway's cut to size your sanding block. Sandpaper won't go bad.

McKees makes a headlight restoration kit that it easy to use and there is no wet sanding involved. All you need is a power drill.

I use a 2" and 3" set up on my drill. You can buy sandpaper dirt cheap, literally pennies per. I'll PM you details. Take about 5-7 days to get it. From there pick up some small polishing pads and pretty much any compound or polish.

please send me the link too, i wonder would these sand paper will be able to attached to the GG6 with 3 inch backing blade? its seem like too many had recommend those kits from 3m, meg and others that selling $15 for 10-20 piece for each grit, that's expensive.. i'm looking for buying bulk sand disc paper to attach to my GG6 anyone have any recommendation? thank you!

have you looked at things like Meg's Unigrit system or Abralon disks w/ interface pads?
