You moron that's why you DON't wetsand. Wetsanding is for smoothness and will make it so the paint doesn't adhere. If you really want to get rid of the chrome, DRY sand with 100, 150, 200, 220 sand paper, primer and paint .



Might want to be careful throwing 'moron' around. Wetsanding isn't just for smoothness. It is also for keeping your sandpaper free of build-up, making it last longer. It also keeps the dust from getting in the air and in your (not moronic) lungs. You can wetsand with any grit paper, not just the higher grits.



not to mention that wetsanding is recommended in between paint steps
