Cut with compound then glaze. 3m no longer makes the stuff I used to use so I'm going to try Evercoat triple system on this car.

A lot of painters are using 1000 on a DA now to knock down orange peel and nibs...... Power tools are tempting but I have enough problems experimenting with new processes and products right now LOL.
