super fine wet sand

that too. depends on how strong the brush strokes are. ive taken them out with just a buffer and compound, but they weren't strong

Maybe he is comming back to Wetsand and buff.

When was the repair made??

he said he could sand it with 800 grit but might burn thru it. so it would be better to leave it alone. like i said i think he just wanted to go home

Slap some camo duct tape on it and call it good

(let it cure for a few days and take a spray bottle of water and some 400-800 to it if you feel up to the task)

Well if you're worried about it burning through as well, that is what I had meant. Is it in a highly visible location? You could always abrade the location and lay on more product then level everything down so it's not as noticeable.
