Fresh Paint Q
Fresh Paint Q A friend just recently painted my front quarter panel on my car cause it was hit, he gave me a huge discount, so i really dont want to bitch about the job. it looks good for the price, i'm happy, only that he must have took it out of the booth too soon and he parked it outside while it was raining. The paint must have not dried right because it was raining and the rain drops made small dots on the clear coat. It looks like water spots, only smaller and a lot of em. The car is under the roof now so hopefully it finishes drying.
My question is if i take my pc and buff the clear coat tomorrow when its nice and hot outside, will it fix the cricles on the clear coat?
Or is it not safe to buff the clear coat since its so fresh?
Thanks.
If yall want pictures to see what i'm talking about i will try to load some up.

I was going to say exactly what 6SSPEED said but you just cleared it up. If it had enough time to set up to some degree then simple compound will do the trick, if not wet-sand then buff will usually work,depends on how many coats of clear were applied.
