: I took Jay Babina's recommendation and only sanded with 80-grit. It worked
: out nicely.

I did all my shaping and rough sanding with 60-grit, then removed the scratches with 80-grit and then glassed. I don't see any point in going up through all those grits as you can't see the scratches anyway when its all wet out.
