1. The best tool for the job when it comes to removing sanding marks from an entire car is a rotary buffer with a wool pad, the appropriate compound and a little experience.

2. Factory baked-on paint is usually thin and hard, that's two HUGE negatives working against you should you be in a position to want or need to sand on factory paint.

3. Always use the least aggressive approach to get the job done

4. Always do a Test Spot to a small section and make sure you can get 100% of your sanding marks out before sanding further.

5. Only sand enough to remove or improve the defects you're trying to remove

6. Remember that sanding removes paint as does the compounding and polishing process, so take this into account as you science-out the project.

7. If possible, use a Paint Thickness Gage to measure the film-build before sanding an note on a form the reading you take for before, during and after. A Paint Thickness Gauge is a handy tool to give you and indication as to overall paint thickness as well as any bodywork or re-paint that has been done to spot areas or entire panels. (Even an entire car although this articles is focused on factory paint)

8. Don't sand too close to edges or hard/sharp body lines. It's easy to sand paint next to edges and hard/sharp body lines but it's harder to remove your sanding marks by machine in these areas without the risk of buffing on the actual edge or body line and risk burning through the paint. Usually paint is thinner on edges and body lines to start with so it's even riskier than in the middle of a flat horizontal panel. You can come back and remove your sanding marks by hand with a product like M105 or even Ultimate Compound as both of these products are aggressive enough and safe enough to pull sanding marks by hand.

9. Most important - Always work clean. This includes your shop environment, the vehicle, your buffing pads, your tools, your polishing cloths, everything you have control over.
