What happens here

After identifying 'fish eye' defects on a newly sprayed custom door, which occurred due to some contamination, use a Filmtech 320 plastic abrasive from Uneeda to carefully sand out the raised imperfections, often described as 'volcanoes'. It is critical to thoroughly sand these areas flat, as failing to do so will result in them being visible and causing further issues even after re-spraying.

Goal: Remove raised fish eye defects from painted surface

Tools and materials

  • Filmtech 320 plastic abrasive Uneeda — Sanding out raised fish eye defects (volcanoes)
  • Orbital sander — Applying the abrasive evenly and efficiently
  • Sander vacuum hose — Collecting sanding dust and maintaining a clean work environment

used Filmtech 320 plastic abrasive from Uneeda to sand out the volcanoes created by the fish eye. You don't sand them out, you're going to see them just as bad when you reshoot it. So, I used Filmtech uh 320 to sand. After I shot
