Paint Class - Day 21

Today we also had a tool check - which consisted of checking for about 5 things, from our 20+ item list. If you didn't have an item you were sent home, I think one we got to the fifth item our teacher decided we has a critical mass of students, and didn't want to loose any more. My partner and I wet sanded with 600 grit sand paper and a sanding block the hood and deck lid of the BMW. well, he blocked the hood (that we put so many coats of primer on) with a long board and 180 grit first, then wet snaded it. I learned that the wet sanding should be done in an x pattern, and that it should be done to the point that none of the guidecoat shows any more (which eliminates low spots).
