really depends man. figuring out how rough you want your sandpaper depends on how much you need to sand down. for something rough to the touch, i might start with 1500, then 2000, then orbital buffer with rubbing compound, then polishing compound. if it comes out nice, you could probably just level it out with a quick 2000 wetsand and go straight to buffing /w polish.

of course all of this is balanced by the fact that you're doing a rattle can job. if you try to sand/buff too much you will end up going down to the bottom layer of primer/paint and you'll have to respray.

so you'll have to pick a point where you either lay on more coats next time so you have more to work with, or just say fuck it and deal with the imperfections
