I was given a tip a few years back from a pro, 800 grit and lots of washing up liquid, it does work too  |

just use it neat, will need a good polishing afterwards but it creates less scratches on the paintwork compared to using water |

G3 Farecla is excellent for removing flatting marks but finish with G10 for showroom finish. It seems that Lacquer doesn't have the same anti-sag qualities and so will run quite easily, bummer really as the gun was still set for the paint and no probs there.  |

Cheers mate, still needs finishing, the roof and runs need doing and then all the decals back on and the spot lights and then sort the wheels, top tip though, always remember to re-connect the oil pressure guage back on before letting oil spill over nice new carpets and cooper mats
