Wetsanded my Head Light Lens Cover . . . Pics! I've been meaning to try wetsanding the entire car this summer so I decided to practice on a small part. I've had great success before with certain problem areas on my car. Well here's the pics:
1. The tools:
2. After a 2000 grit sanding:
3. After some Rubbing compound to help smooth down the sand marks:
4. After a medium cut abrasive:
5. The finished result:
The finish is great. Obviously no swirl marks!
And no Orange Peel! I am a little upset as the wetsand didn't get rid of all of the rock chips though! 
You could kinda see them in the last pic. I had a hard time focusing with the camera - I guess cuz the finish was so deep!
