Final coat on the playfield is done and sanded. Not bad for my first playfield clear coat. There are a couple dimples, but otherwise it turned out well. I’ll have to give it some time before I buff it with novus 2 and wax it.
The only good thing about my mess up earlier is that the undercoat was sanded and left to cure for a week before the final top coat, so it should cut the remaining cure time some. Also, I see every guide telling you to wet sand with a block to flatten it out. I did that in between early coats. Before the last coat, and after, I gently used my 5” random orbital sander with wet sand paper. It saved my arms a lot of work, and looks to have worked well.
Before: (you can see some of the dust that settled into the surface, and some orange peel. I don’t know how you avoid that with a rattle can)D6195BF3-48A9-4503-BD67-E837EE56D196 (resized).jpeg
