Default remove wetsanding dullness by hand on brilliant black help!

i wetsanded some touch up paint using some unigrit 1500 and 2000 wetsandpaper but now the paint is dull and hazy.

anyone have any suggestions on how to remove this by hand or should i just wait to get my hands on a rotary buffer?

Default I think your hand will fall off before it shines, seriously though you will need at least a pc

The products that will bring back the shine on your paint need to break themselves down with heat which will yield the best results. You can make it better by hand in the meanwhile but it wont be perfect.

Default what product do you recommend?

I was thinking some of the fine cut 3m rubbing compound followed by some medallion premium paint cleaner and then swirl remover

think dual action cleaner polish would be better?

Default When I wet sand I use Menzerna power polish, followed by intensive and then final polish

Results are perfect
