The last thing you want to wet sand is factory paint. That is a last ditch effort for when you are removing deep scratches. If you are doing it for a certain look to the paint, you have to spray more clear, block sand it and then spray more clear. You repeat that process until you build up enough clear coat, which should be very flat. Here's a car that I worked on that had been painted by an expert. The clear coat on this car is immaculate.







If you look at the picture below, you will see the reflection of the building off the paint and also off the glass. The reflection off the glass is what perfect clear coat would look like after that wet sanding and respraying process, which is not cheap by the way. The reflection off the paint has a "orange peel" surface look to it and thus the name. Now if I had taken the time to do so, I could have made the reflection off the paint look even deeper than it does but this was just a quick demonstration to show people what the products could do.
