You might ask the pro guys about that upol #8. I think it's a rattle bomb. Most of the pros shy away from that stuff. I'm guessing they would typically go with a standard acid etch. Darrin and Matt can give you the info.
What a great feeling to have the car sanded and masked ready to paint first thing in the morning. Good luck tomorrow!

@GarethDavidWebb Probably don't have to use it, not sure. We have a few bear metal spots and one spot where filler is exposed. We bought 2 different kinds, we have an epoxy primer that can be mixed as sealer, and a urethane sealer, but I dont' think its meant to go over bare metal. Its not meant to be sanded. Of course you can probably wet sand it with some 600-800 if you messed something up.
Gary, with wet sanding, if im able to do it outdoors (like with bike parts) then ill have a really slow trickling hose pipe playing on the sanding block all the time to keep it totally free of removed material, but if you're not able to run a hose ( in a garage it would flood the place out), then i use a hand held plant sprayer bottle and keep pumping clean water on the work area...the key is to keep the removed meterial off the job asap..it prevents clogging and stops the clog from scratching

@Moonfleet41 Thanks Del. Yes, we were not quite setup like we needed to be for this one. Definitely would have done it out side, but we had the front suspension off the car so we couldn't roll it out. I like the pump up sprayer idea.

I don't re guide coat after 400 but it won't hurt to do it. I also like to squeegee off the residue as I sand. Looking good!

@slowsrt Yea, we guided coated a few areas after 400, then stopped doing it, didn't really seem to need it.
