The process is pretty easy really. I spray the base color, wait till it dries then sand it lightly if necessary with hasegawa sanding cloths or tamiya #2000 paper. Then clearcoat it (usually with finnisher's 2K clear). Then I wet sand it again tamiya #2000 or hasegawa or 3M (or all of them). Then Tamiya compounds (all 3) - it's the most time consuming part but well worth the effort, and finally hasegawa coating polymer (or tamiya wax) and voilá
It's my favourite part of every build

I hope this description will be usefull

Cheers
