I got the qrt. pannel blended perfect but had one run in the clear on the second coat. Can I sand it with 1200 then 1500 wet(with a firm soft block I assume?) 24hours after it was shot? This is PPG2042 Speedclear. Anyway if I sand it out tomorrow night can the wife still drive it to work on Monday? Can/Should I wait a week to buff it, just letting her drive it with the run sanded out and gassing off? It will be in the garage at night and it is not freezing durring the day. Just want to be sure I don't have to do this over :D

Don't know what temps are in the garage but I would let it dry at least 24 hours before sanding,maybe 48 if it's real cold.You can buff right away but I usually wait a couple hours.

Good luck, Mike
