Hello club integra! I have a question that I couldn't find searching the forums or google. My question is how do I use an orbital sander correctly? I have 1000 grit and 1500 grit wet at the moment on my sander. How much pressure am I suppose to use on my car because I have a tremendous amount of orange peel. The 1500 grit isn't enough to get the orange peel out. So when I used the 1000 grit today it still didn't get out the orange peel. I am prolly not using hte sander correctly. Then when I was done with the 1000 and 1500 there was still some orange peel but when I buffed with the compound and polish from turtle wax I saw circular scratches still left from the sander. I have no idea of how much pressure, direction, or how I know I am done sanding the other scratches off. I have a white car so it is hard to see with the sunlight on what I need to sand still until I buff it then I notice the scratches because it shows up instead of shine. Sorry for all the questions!
