Ok so while I was painting my gt, I had a couple of runs about an inch and a half long. Its dried up and I was wondering if there is any way I can remove them? I used a razor to shave them off and sanded with 400 grit then 1500 grit sandpaper. Im waiting until tomorrow to spray over it. Am I missing any steps?

Also the only sandpaper I have to work with is 320,400,1500,and 2000 grit all wet/dry. Can I do 400 to 1500?

That's kind of a dramatic change in grit there. You don't have ANY access to 600, 800, or even 1000? I would normally say that the transition from the 400 grit to 1500 grit sandpaper is a not too good, but if you're up to the task then go for it. Just remember one thing, patience is a virtue. Don't rush, most sanding mistakes come from rushing the job. If you need to take breaks then be sure to do so. I know I'm sounding sort of like an instructor but I just would like to see you get your car done the way you'd like it to get done.
