Wetsanding is for paint that has been faded due to dirt and other contaminants in the clear coat. Wet sanding brings the clear down a little, and is then polished. You do not need to have this wet sanded
 
the front begs to differ :(

the front has seen better days:

it would need to be wetsanded if i remove the decals, the paint has faded

just assume good condition of paint

If those chips are through the paint then you need to repaint... not sand. Sanding will remove lots of paint and cause problems in the future. Bottom line: on most new factory clear coat there is never a good reason to wetsand.

You can polish the paint with a rotary or PC buffer and get very dramatic results... especially on red.

Good luck either way,

You're up northernish, so I'd wait to sell it in the spring, when the demand for sports cars goes up. Nobody wants to buy a mustang at the onset of winter. On the flipside, autumn is a great time to buy :nice: which is why i'm a happy camper right now.
