No need to buff the powder coat. Powder bake ship to client, done. Only time you would wet sand was if you had to recoat due to thin powder layer.

Thanks for the info that was posted I have been powdercoating for about a year and I have never had a call to buff the coating but I have had some people ask.

Thanks again.
