What grit of sand paper should I use? I need to clean off the Zap and then sand smooth enough so the scratches don't show thru the paint.
Does the CARF touch up pain dry glossy, or do I need to color sand and polish?

I guess getting the paint from CARF will cost $200 and I hope I don't need to buy another $200 in supplies.

The tips from BVM were quite detailed. I checked their web site and they don't sell the materials that they used too.
