    Ok, I watched the whole video. Not an expert on the European “P” & “K” but you did a good job of explaining the results. I see PSA sandpaper and hook & loop, not once did I catch either term used to describe this system. The cost of sandpaper goes up and the “K” series will be more expensive due to intellectual properties. I have no choice but to use PSA paper, I also understand the reason for an “Inter-Pad” of 3 cushion values and results. I find the hard nibber set interesting as well. I seen the short-stoke sander used, in other videos, to reduce the orange peel or get rid of it. I have limited funds, but will find a Short-Stoke sander, as bad elbows only get worse. This is a complete refinish on my vehicle, but will have to use PSA and the best coatings I can afford. Also, no mention of the filler but would guess it’s Evercoat. Trying my best to do it right once. Chemical strip (Bought 1 gal per visit 5 years ago before it doubled and the Methylene Chloride was reduced/take out of others), epoxy seal, filler with a mix of polyester gazing/honey for better sanding, less clogging. Always used a folded coat hanger with rubber hose handle to clean paper.
    So what filler? PSA or not? ASE Master for decades but back, elbows had surgery. What my son doesn’t take, my wife throws away. Only 62, I guess it’s not the age, but the miles. Any info on products? Thanks.

    As part time DIY, I have a few nics here and there on my car that I will probable sand, compound and polish out. Your channel and wealth of knowledge allows me to choose the right approach the first time so I can get back to auto detailing which I love immensely!!!!

      Could I ask for your opinion? I want to repaint my c5 corvette myself. I will be applying base coat and clear. I have not sanded the car yet. Could I use 400 grit dry sanding of the whole car to take off the clear coat and then apply my base coat after? I'm wondering if the base coat would cover up any scratches from the 400 Grit or should I dry sand with 600 grit then apply my basecoat? I would be using a DA for this. Thank you
