Did this for a friend of a friend. Im not sure what he tried to do before, but you can see he tried to scratch the oxidation out. I could`ve gotten all the deep scratches out if I had more time, but I only had an hour..long story.



I started with 1500 grit horizontal motions, then followed with 2k vertical motion. Once even, I followed with M105, then full throttle, then PlastX, and sealed with Rejex.

2000 grit(I did another pass after the pic because I noticed some spots were missed):

Did you also sand using the PC, or was that all done by hand?
