    Masking Tape

    Is all Painters Masking Tape the same or is there different masking tape for automotive finishes than household painter's tape? I have several rolls of 3M medium adhesion painter's tape for house paint but I don't want to put it on a vehicle if it will react with the finish, if that makes sense.

    Understanding Orange Peel

    I'm trying to understand Orange Peel on new factory paint. Is the textured look in the clear coat or in the base color? From what I've read on this forum, it's in the clearcoat. I talked to a body shop painter who said it was in the base color. I guess I'm asking could it be in either? Or...

    To clay or not?

    I'm planning on compounding and polishing my wife's suburban '05 model . My question is, since I'm going to compound (M105) won't the compound remove any impurities imbedded in the paint prior to polishing (M205)? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using AG Online
