Gang,
The '66 Dodge D100 is being worked on and picutures as I go have been snapped for a future Show Off, it's a SS paint and dark blue and so far, Rotary and G100 work with M80 has worked marvelous. I am at the stage of polishing the minute swirls out with the PC then polish with M07 and M16 (going to give a can to the boy after showing how to use it).
The picture below shows what is below the side trim along side the truck. It definately feels raised and appears to be thick paint that has gathered on the trim on a repaint (I don't think trim was removed). I thought of sanding but the paint is very thin and the ridge is very small, I hit it with the rotary and M80 with 8006 pad hoping to knock it down after a claying and it softened it but did not knock it down. Hopefully you can see the parts

The truck will be repainted some day and the trim will probably cover it (the trim will be polished as well)
Just welcoming some thoughts. I am not experienced with sanding but have read a ton on it and watched the videos a ton (5 video series) and not afraid to try starting with a high grit.
I don't own a plastic scraper which I thought it could be accumalated wax from Great Grandpa waxing the old girl in the past, but family said he never waxed it. Old work truck.
Thanks
Aaron
