    I just painted my HD, using a urethane based paint, Got a couple of runs, and want to know which compound to get to finish the job.

    Thanks

    Removing paint runs requires color sanding. Start out with 1500 grit sand paper or sanding block. Once your done evening our the paint finish polishi out the sanding marks with our Compound Power Cleaner #84 along with a foam cutting pad (w-7006) with a rotary buffer at about 1700-1800 rpm. Once your done removing the sanding marks polish out the finish using Dual Action Cleaner Polish #83 with a foam polishing pad (8006) at about 1600-1700 rpm. This should get you a pretty good finish once your done if the products are applied with proper/ correct technique.

      Yup, also what we used for runs was a razor blade. We'd scrape a little off at a time untill it was level with the surrounding paint. Then sand a little, and buff the sanding scratches

        Thanks a lot guys. A guy at Autozone almost had me buy the Diamond Cut compound #85. I will go and get the ones you recommend.
