I picked up a shell chair recently that had paint splattered on it. I sanded off the paint and applied Pentrol, at certain angels you can see the sanded spots. Should I apply another coat of Pentrol or just buff the whole chair?
Im also curious as to what the offical color name of the chair is, its 'avacado' or 'pea soup' yellowy-green color.
Thanks dears!

It sounds like you spot...
It sounds like you spot sanded which will obviously make those areas easy to spot. Why not sand down the entire chair.

And work through the grades
up to P800 or beyond before coating.

You can also use acetone to rub off the paint spots. I had some bondo on my chair. Worked like a charm. Just don't pour it on, make sure you use a white cloth and only rub it with the acetone. Also cleaned up the enamel white legs.
