Re: wet sanding and buffing acrylic enamel ? help me

You can buff the AE but I would wait at a minimum of 30 days before you do it. Also you did not mention whether or not you had hardener in it. AE does not cure out fast like BC/CC. If you buff too soon and too aggressively you can imbed compound into the paint.

You can buff A/E yes but when it is metallic you run the risk of cutting into the metallic and if that happens you will not be happy with the results
