After using the 3M 2000 grit wetsand paper there were very micro sized scratches after using the 2000 grit paper then I proceeded too use the 3M 3000 "Soft" wetsand paper...it took them out...very nice. Back to work I go.
 
So, what was the cause, if any?

Impurities in the slough?

It is what it is?

Nature of the beast?

What are you following up the 3000 with...foam?
 
It had a million scratches...so that the client wanted out so he can sell it.
 
Well Mike you are very correct.....wetsanding reminding me of using the claybar..I hated it...it took 2 days but it came out very nice and the client was very happy. I took alot of time to read your articles on wetsanding and learned alot...Thanks.
 
So, the micro scratches were remnants, left behind from the RIDS - that were partially reduced by the 2000 after wet sanding, and not indicative of the 2000 itself?
