Good to hear. I used 1000 grit sandpaper and chased it with 1500 grit. I don't recommend sanding your car....unless you know what you are doing.

How does your leg rub up against that area? You making love to your car?

are you using rattle can for clearcoat?
Yeah, I got it back from the shop and the clear on it was ok. So I decided to sand and clear it. I used PPG clear coat and my spray gun.
