Looks Great!!! I love the smell and look of a freshly Cleared car. The clear and color will never be as pure as it is right now.

Close, but not quite!! Looks Great and the color will look great outside. You ought to be able to have it completed and driving by Monday, right.
 
As long as I find a sack of cash tonight. Next step is wet sand and buff, Then decals.
 
Awesome Adam! Looks great, I hate wet sanding... Just did a black Chevelle for a customer a couple months ago and my body felt like I was 80 after...
 
Looks good!

I thought it would be fun to come up with a goofy name for my goofy '70s orange car project thread and I ended up with The Great Pumpkin.

Maybe yours can be The Great Pickle.

using a wet or dry?

I always di the old 1200/1500/2000 by hand wet- the wet sanding machine always left deep scratches that were difficult to buff out, but I am interested in this method going up to 5k must make buffing a breeze.
 
Wet, 1500 just to nib the dust out. By the time you get to the 5000 wet is almost shiny again. The down side is the paper is about $60 for a box of 10.
