I just had my Lian Li PC-A05N powder coated and it's got some orange peel visible. I want to wet sand the panels to get a smoother finish. The case panels were originally anodized and I think there was 3 coats of powder applied. I've got 400, 800, 1000, and 2000 grit 3M wet/dry sand paper and a sanding block. I've read in other places how to do it: use water bucket with dishwashing soap to aid in sanding, and wipe with a cloth to gauge your progress.
Question: how do you know when you're done with a grit and it's time to move on? I don't have any experience and some advice on amount of pressure to apply, tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated. Also, what kind of buffing / polishing compound should I use after the wet sanding is done?
Thanks!
