yep, just lay on plenty of clear (if it needs it) and let it settle for a couple of weeks, then give it a block down with 1200-2000 wet/dry, then machine buff with a good compound followed by a good polish with a finishing glaze.. itll be flatter then 2pac as it wont have orange peel like 2pac, as uve blocked itr down

You can get 2K pretty flat mate you just dont leave it as long to dry 3 days to 1 week or youll have better chance of getting a turd to shine without scratches ..

my glasuit 2K paint job is off the gun not polished and thats a flat as hell and 6 years old now. it depends on your painter big time..

cheers
