thewongster Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 What sand paper should I use to sand the finish and the main color. Automotive or wood paper? And what is the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southpa Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 I would go with wet/dry sandpaper. Stay away from the garnet covered paper sandpaper unless you are dry sanding. Finish coat sanding is primarily done with the addition of water (wetsanding). It doesn't matter if the paper's application is for autobody purposes or not but it should say "waterproof paper" on the back. And you WILL find the best paper at your local autobody supply store. I use paper made by nortonabrasives.com and another brand called "GatorGrit". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitarchump Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Or you can get the 3M stuff that lots of places sell, its good stuff as well. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarGuy Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Try eastwood co. They have rolls of "stick it" no name brand (or at least not a brand I have heard of brfore). For about $14. It is just as good if not better than the 3M stuff. At a fraction of the price. It you're in canada you dont pay duty cuz its a canadian distributer.
