I painted my car last year and i'm not happy with a few of the marks in it,,,,what grit paper should i use to sand and block it down to get some of the marks our

thanks

Silver R/T

is it base clear or single stage, metallic or solid color? How many coats of clear are on there (if any)
If it has clear coat I'd start out with 1200 and go up to 2500 before cutting and buffing

Well....if you're going to repaint anyway.....I just wet sand with some 1500-2000.  Lots of people have different procedures that they use, you know....a matter of preferance.
