Also if you hear a squeak type noise that means there is dirt uner the paper, stop and clear area and restart. Also get a squegee so you can check your work area often. Also do not use fast strokes, go slow so in case dirt gets under the paper there is alot less to correct. If you have any other question just ask, I have wet sanded hundreds of vehicles, this is all I can think of at the moment.

Yea believe me If I were to do it, I would read everything I could about it, then practice on something else first. Thanks for the tips though.
Do you feel that the results will justify taking off that amount of clear coat? Will the car be hurting in the long run if I intend to keep the car for a long time?
I have a few bumper scrapes on my rear bumper I can play with touchup/wetsanding if I decide to try it.
