Both halves of the hood has now been painted and shot with clear coat.  The top side red and the bottom side black.

Before starting to sand out the clear coat on the bottom side of the hood, I first taped towels to the top side so that when the hood is laying top side down, it is not scratched along the way.

Here is the bottom side after sanding and polishing out the clear coat.

Now back to the tops side...  After removing the towels and tape, the clear coat was sanded out with 1,500 grit and then 2,000 grit paper.

Here is the same shot from another angle...  This before the polishing starts.

Here is a shot half way through the polishing process.

This is the top side after polishing out with rubbing compound and before the final polish.
