    I repaired a dent on the bumper and sprayed base coat, then clear coat. I applied about 4 coats of base and 3 of clear. I wet-sanded the finish with 2000 grit. Part of it feels very nice. Part of it still feels a little rough. I think the obvious answer is I should go back over the rough area with 2000 grit again, but since I’m an amateur I want to ask first.

    If you have 3 coats of clear you should have enough material to go over it again w/ 2000. But if its feeling rough due to dry spray then you should be very careful that you don’t break through or you will be refinishing the whole thing again. Is it a metal or plastic bumper?
