you mean 2000 sandpaper/waterpaper?
2000 grit sand paper that can be used wet or dry.

I used it wet for this..
I think I'd kak my broek if I had to take sandpaper to a car that wasn't being resprayed. You obviously know what you're doing so no need to change your pants.
I'm still amazed at the outcome

I really enjoyed this transformation, the best part was seeing the owner using the car after that and not being ashamed of it. That was a really good feeling knowing I gave the car a new life..
