Start with 4000 and work your way towards the 12000 grit range if needed. I can't see anything here that needs addressed though. When you do polish go with the Novus 2 only. Save the Novus 1 till you're getting ready to put 'er on the shelf......or better yet....under glass.

BTW.....FANTASTIC work pal. You've done very well so far. :shoutout:
I agree with Mustang about the quality of your work, and the usage of high grit sandpaper. All too often the final stages of painting — the sanding and blending — are left out. Try the Novus series like he suggests.

Thanks! Yep, becoming a fan of the higher grit stuff.
