Good question. They were NOT sanded first -- it would have added $1000. Yet it is a perfectly smooth and mirror finish. He told me that after the first clear coat, the plastic "absorbed" it or something so they sanded it (the clear coat) and coated it again. Whether this specific procedure is what made it smooth or not, I do not know. But I wasn't charged for the second coat. I think I got really lucky on this.
