Clear Coat sanding

[mentor]

Hi all.

I had an accident a few months ago and have now removed the dints out of my tank. I recently painted the tank and the clear coat (Two pack) had some imperfections in it (like where a bug or two landed) so i wet sanded (800 grit) it down to a smooth finish.

Problem is now i have swirl marks all over my tank.

The pic below shows what it looks like. 1/2 the tank is wet and thats how i want it to look, the other 1/2 is dry and you can see the swirls.
Should i continue to wetsand (maybe 1200 grit, then 1500 grit, then 2000 grit) or should i just re-clear coat it?

Also, i'm thinking of adding just a thin coat of strato blue flakes over it to give that real sparkle. . any thoughs?

Thanks for the help all.

probably the best way would be to sand the rest of the tank with your 800 and then throw on three coats of clear.if you want it perfect wet sand it with 2000 and then polish it.good luck.cyas
