Use glazing putty as a leveler so you can watch your edges almost like blocking skim coat it level with the run then wet sand watching the edges until hey are gone then . stage buff works great won't burn through the clear ol body guy showed me it .If the run is real bad use a new razor blade and take it down a notch then wet sand good luck just watch the edges you don't want to be spotting it back in PIA.

Thanks for the info so take the glazing putty and put it on beside the run above and below it then sand it down with say 800, 1000, 1500 wet?
