[Chrysler300] Color Sanding / Polishing advice requested.



Hi group,

today I brought my freshly painted '65 300 home from the paint shop and it 
sure looks good. I finally get to begin reassembly as soon as it 
cures.(think I'll start laying out the wiring tonight) I'm really happy with 
how straight the car turned out seeing as I did all of the bodywork myself.

Unfortunately though, there are some areas that ended up with 'orange peal' 
and I wonder if any of you can offer some words of wisdom as to how I should 
approach color sanding and polishing the paint once it cures. In some places 
the paint is also looking a little 'dry'.  Should I even attempt it given 
that the paint is silver and is a single stage acrylic enamel?  I've color 
sanded and polished dash boards and smaller parts before with some success 
but worry about wet sanding silver as I've heard it can appear to discolor? 
How can I ensure I get a bright shine and eliminate swirls?

Any help would be appreciated. Also, I'm still in need of a nice glove box 
liner to fit a '65.

Thanks, Ryan Hill (Vancouver, B.C.)
