can i wet sand spray paint to give it a more uniform finish?

[PEZi]

yes... i assume you mean just for certain areas though right? trying to wetsand the whole thing would be a b****!

You Can wet sand spray paint. The problem is that spray paint does not have the hardener in it that "car paint" has. It wont hold up to the weather and dont spill gas on it, it will eat it. I know this well. I painted a motorcycle with spray paint and it was a mess. You can get some clear and spray(with a gun) over that and then pollish buff that and you'll be set.

Right on. The more clear the better.
