Polishing steps for overspray from the body shop - Toyota Yaris Forums

If I were blind I could tell where the body shop painted my car just by the bumby feel. The color match and shine is good so I don't want to go and screw it up. No was a clay bar is going to remove this over sray.

I think it is going to have to be wetsanded with 2000m grit then polished. Thats where I get lost, over on Autotopia there are so many different schemes for polishing I can't keep them straight.

In my aresnal I have:

Chemical Guys Blue Elastic Clay Bar
Dewalt polisher (I am terrible at leaving swirl marks withis hing)
6.5 in wool pad for theDewalt
Porter Cable Random Orbial)
Pinnacle #4 polish
Pinnacle #1 Polish
Orange, White, Nad Black LK 6.5" pads
Klasse AIO
Klass SW soom to be replaced with Colinite 476
Various Caranuba astes.

What procedure would you use to get rid of the clear overspray and have my car as smooth as glass?
