^All that's in the kit is some 500, 800 (iirc, maybe 1000?) the Trizact, some compound, an orange pad, and of course said adapter.

Are you just knocking down the peel or sanding it flat? I see shiny spots on the rear quarter.

sanding it flat. The same process I used on my interior pieces a long time ago.

When I was building my old computer I came across this blog and it got me thinking I should try to do it with my paint. Seems to be working so I'm going to the whole car with this finish.

Well since you have so many years on me I have some quick questions maybe you can help me out with.

What products/order would you use to paint our composite front bumper brace thing and battery covers?

I was going to just sand them really well and put a coat of paint, but I really think I should use some sort of adhesion promoter.
