A little how-to on chip repair.

I ordered my WDP paint just now from PaintScratch. I chose the bottles.
My only trepidation is the "tri-coat" issue. Base, mid-coat, clearcoat. One area needs primer so that's FOUR layers.
My concern is if I put too much base-coat down, then mid-coat, then sand, would I be sanding off my mid-coat? I "think" the base coat is plain and just needs a thin cover then the mid-coat is the one that will mostly fill the hole. Course the clear coat needs to fill a bit else it'll get paper'd off. Get what I mean?
Anyone know of a good site where I can order the wet Megs sandpaper? All I could find at the local stores was 3m 2000.

You're right that if you're going to do the clear, you have to leave a "divot" to put the clear in to avoid just sanding it off.
I would try one spot that's the least viewable and see how it goes with several layers of WDP.
Did you Google for Megs?
