Hot take: I switched from hand filing to a 3M Trizact system for final sanding and it cut my time in half.
For years I used traditional sandpaper blocks on every panel, but after a job on a full Corvette repaint last fall, I tried the Trizact discs on a DA. The finish was just as good, and I saved about 4 hours on the whole car. Anyone else make a big switch in their prep work recently?

Did my buddy try that and love it too?

Haha, "love it" is a strong way to put it! My buddy tried it and his review was basically "it's fine, I guess." He said the texture was weird, like eating sweet sand. Honestly, my own attempt was a total kitchen fail too. I think I burned it and then undercooked it at the same time, which is a special skill. Some of us are just not meant for that recipe.

Sweet sand" is a perfect way to describe my last attempt too. How do you even burn and undercook something at the same time?
