Paint: Description and Operation







DESCRIPTION

Minor acid etching, orange peel, or smudging in clearcoat or single-stage finishes can be reduced with light finesse sanding, hand buffing, and polishing.If the finish has been finesse sanded in the past, it cannot be repeated. Finesse sanding operation should be performed by a trained automotive paint technician.

CAUTION: Do not remove clearcoat finish, if equipped. Basecoat paint must retain clearcoat for durability.
