A paint sprayer will also be needed for the final re-spray.

What they say

So, with dealing with this run on this column, got a couple tools we're going to be using. It's going to be the 3M sanding sponge, either a medium or fine sanding sponge, a bucket with some water to wet our sanding sponge, cuz keeping your sanding sponge wet is what's going to make the sanding process easier, and it's going to make it so the paint doesn't actually when you're sanding it, heat up and gum up and get all gummy. The sanding with wet sanding, it makes it nice and smooth and a lot easier to sand. We're also going to be using some Bondo glazing and spot putty if we need it to uh smooth over with a spackle knife. So, you'll be using a spackle knife if you need the GL Bondo glazing and spot putty after you sand it. You got to determine after you sand it if it completely sands out. Then, of course, we're going to be needing our sprayer to respray it.
