    Took a lot of thought, and probably a lot of editing and re-editiing to share this. And of course caring about the young guys starting out.
    Thanks from a newb.

    Re: RIDS and Feathersanding - A Highly Specialized Technique by Mike Phillips

    Hey Mike, if I make a bottle specifically for a wet-sanding spray solution, should I just use 2-3 drops of car wash soap for the entire bottle or use a teaspoon or two of the car wash shampoo?

    I do have a bottle, but I believe I used too much soap based on what you're saying. This post is some awesome information. It's amazing the kinds of things you don't think about (like cutting sand paper into small pieces) when you get into the heat of the moment trying to remove a few RIDS.

    I've been using a form of your feathersanding when I wet sand, but not to the specific directions you provided here. I'll start using your method as it makes a ton of sense and will hopefully make removing the sanding marks and scratches a lot easier.

    Thanks for the informative post.

    I have a '94 e34 in the same color needing similar work...
    I can remember looking at this when these photos were here. Any chance they are still available somewhere?
