Hey Regal, I think I may have found your solution. Now, the lip kit I just had painted felt like 2000 grit sandpaper all around, and that's not an exaggeration. After losing my patience with just using paste wax, I decided to try something new. I went out and bought Meguiar's Ultimate Compound (G17216) and a new clay bar by Mother's. I spent like two hours last night going over each lip and skirt with three cycles of Meguiar's Ultimate Compound, Meguiar's Scratch-X (which I already had laying around), Mother's, wash, repeat and now they all feel super smooth. It took a while and cost me $24 after tax and whatnot, but damn what a difference! I recommend trying this before wet sanding and all of that. Let me know how it works for you.
