To get quality results you'll want to wetsand the area. I'd suggest grabbing 1500grit, 2000grit and 2500/3000grit sand paper. Soak them overnight prior to the wetsanding.

Treat the area with a thorough wash dry, claybar (if you have it available) and rub the area with some isopropal alcohol. What this will do is properly prep the surface as well as remove any remaining wax / protection on the surface.

If you are going to apply more clear coat do that now. Let it cure for 24-48 hrs before wetsanding. Multiple coats may be required for a uniform look.

Starting with the lowest grit sandpaper begin to wetsand the area, using a dab of automotive shampoo on the surface to help with lubrication. Mist the area with water or redunk the paper in the water to ensure a properly lubricated surface. Continue wetsanding with each grade of sandpaper going as high as you can.

When you are done you will be looking to remove the wetsanding marks. For this you will need a compound. I personally like using Poorboy's Super Swirl Remover Line. It comes in 4 grades of aggressiveness. SSR 3, SSR 2.5, SSR 2 and SSR 1 (from most aggressive to least aggressive). To remove wetsanding marks you generally need at least the SSR 2.5 or SSR 3 and make sure you follow up with the SSR 1 to clean up any remaining haze. An off the shelf brand I'd suggest would be 3M.

After obtaining the proper finish that is desired by using the different Polishes / Comounds, remember to seal in your work with a sealant or wax.

Hope this helps, let me know if you wish for me to elaborate on anything.
