oh no. DON"T shot base after 400. You still have quite a bit of scratching marks. The OEM has very rough skin. 400 will take off all the rough skin. 1000 to smooth it out. Whatever you see there is what you get. Don't skip.
like this one:
Took me nearly 5 hours to sand them down to a perfect, smooth surface. Using both machine and hand.

painters usually shoot the base after 400. at least all the painter i know, if you dont give the base something to grab hold of itll sag and run...

thats teh Smooth..
i think a good way to put it is, if its too smooth, the snake will slip off. if its semi rough, the snake will have good grip to get up on that center console like it would on a plane!!!
BIATCH!

hey Bubble, where did you get the VHT spray?
Also, how does it look when lighted up? I had problems with the spray being uniform when i tried a different brand of spray tint before. Does this one come out perfectly fine?
