What sand paper do you use to ruff up the paint on your car before you clear coat it?
220 down to around 400/600. Then polish. You have to wet sand or dust off area or blow it off with air often to see what you are doing.
220 will take the clear completely off! If you are block sanding before buffing and polishing, start with 1500 wet then use 2000 wet. You can do it again with 3000 bit you probably won't need to. Be careful buffing, do not burn through the paint!

Should you be aware of scratches before spraying clearcoat on a car?
If there are scratches on the surface before you clear coat, the clear will not come out smooth.

If you are spraying new clear over an new base coat, the same techinque for prepping the surface will be necessary if the base coat has dried.
