Hi
Why Panel shape (i mean the curvatures) is important on bringing glossy Paint finish on a Car.

The shape of the panel directly relates to the reflection of the light. The reflection will follow the shape of the body panel. You can easily tell if the body work has any flaws in it by looking at how sharp and symetrical the refelctions are. This is why good body guys go over the primer with 1000 grit ( or more) sand paper.
