I have an 06 yellow f350. there is more FLA (fat ladies ass) in the paint. I feel it is a poor job. Is there enough clear to do a light wetsand to help it at all? Thanks

A friend of mine that was in the paint & body area a while back tells me that there is usually not enough clear to be able to wet sand an buff a factory paint job. That was a few years back, so who knows now. I'd sure hate to sand or buff through though. :eek:

I have a yellow 05 and I was noticing the orange peel as well. You can only really see it at an angle. Doesn't bother me enough to want to do something about it. heard somewhere that alot of finishes are purposely orange peeled for some reason, can't quite remember what it is.

My Oxford White 2006 looks like a golf ball when looking at up close, from certain angles.
