You can tell by looking. When you have heavy orange peal the paint will usually be too thin after a sand anyway because when you apply pressure to the sand paper it is not evenly spread out. That aside if he wet sands and cuts through the clear to the base it will be game over and need a new clear. The smoother the under coat is the less and less orange peel you'll have. Looks like the painter did not reduce the paint properly, and used too much pressure.
What I dont understand is that unless you break through you have no idea how much material is on there.
Now logic can kick in and say "hey I sanded the ***** off this thing, it was pretty rough- there cant be too much material left maybe I should just re-shoot it"

Back to site after long absence . . .
Old name was NJDave (I think), haven't been on in years and don't know password and definitely don't have any of the e-mail addresses I used back then . . . so just started this new account.
Here are some pictures of the car I just took out of storage (after 10 years) this past weekend. Enjoy . . .
Yes, original miles.
