CETA Mod... So, I did the CETA rear bumper mod on my 01 WS6 this afternoon and for the most part, I'm pleased with how it came out. However, I noticed that there were a couple of small paint runs. I used Krylon Fusion paint that was specifically designed for plastic. Do any of you paint experts know if I can "sand down" the runs at all? I've heard somewhere that you can wet-sand these areas with some really fine grit sand paper, but I'm obviously no paint expert. Just looking for some tips. Thanks!
It looks like you used a semi gloss paint, so i dont know if the same applies. But with a standard base coat clear coat application, you would be able to wet sand the clear and then remove the fine scratches by buffing them out.
Looks good by the way

yes, you can wet sand the runs out. just get some 1000 or 1500 grit sand paper and wet sand the runs out till smooth, and then add another coat. i had a few when painting mine. i applied 2 coats of paint, once it was dry, i noticed the runs, so i wet sanded them (i think i used 1000). then cleaned it good with some soap and water/rinsed good, and then applied one last light coat over the entire thing.
