@bearsafetyus hey dude wet sanding is after your clear (protection/shine) coat. You wet sand to make the clear shiny so its like a mirror...if you tried to wet sand just normal paint you wouldn't be able to get it that shiny and it wouldn't be protected

Hey another question! I relic'd my tele and have some open spots on the wood i need to poly a couple coats before i wetsand but the spots are fresh looking.. Do you have an idea of how to get the wood to look more deeper richer vintaged brown looking? I thought about using a toung oil.. but idano... maybe a dirty car oil? ?

Question 1: What kind of wood is that? It looks like a piece of marble. Question 2: are you Eric Clapton?

The wood is Buckeye burl. Usually it is mostly black with creme swirls. This piece is almost all blond. It does look a little like marble.

Where do i find wet sand sandpaper? Is it just normal sandpaper? And last but not least should the last step be wetsand or poly?

You have so many questions about the finish process that I could write pages (sorry, I don't have the time). Google your guitar wood finish guestions and I think you will find a lot of help. Also try Youtube...there is a bunch of guitar finish films posted. Good luck.

No, do not use water on raw (unfinished) wood.
