you soak the paper in water for at least 15 min prior to use (it will usually roll up into a little burrito), unroll it and sand with it. Make sure you have a spray bottle to keep the surface you are sanding wet. You can also put a drop of soap in the bucket while soaking the paper and in the spray bottle for extra lube.

No need to spray any laquer on them. That's the cheap way of doing it.

I agree dont clear just sand and buff I do about 5 6 sets a week 1000 2000 high speed buff high speed polish then put wax on them they will stay a long time if you keep wax on them

even without regular wax.... once you SAND off the oxidation and defects there is no way for them to come back, I mean you removed them lol. Now granted overtime they will go back to where you started, but realistically that will take years...
