Paint 3 to 5 coats after each looses its thickness and on the final coat, it will be helpful to add some acetone. Acetone will fill some brush lines and make sure that everything is smooth. After 2 to 3 days, everything will have cured and it is a good time to begin the sanding process. Sand until you achieve a dull look of a smooth finish.

Then you sand using abrasol, keeping in mind constant lubrication with water. Keep checking on various scratches that may have occurred until you can see your reflection through the surface.

If you want to customize and create various shapes, you need to visualize and plan before taking the tools you need. If an image will serve you better, scribble something or have someone draw for you. Follow the instructions from your manual and the results will be breathtaking.
