#2 Heavy Duty Kit Instructions

2) Apply any type of masking tape to area around headlight.
3) Pre soak sand paper in a bucket of soap water for 10-15 minutes.

Which is precisely why I asked... Wasn't drawing a question to the tune that you couldn't use #85 to accomplish this task...
My personal opinion is that #84 is easier to work with than #85 but, that's a preference thing...
Again, #85 shouldn't be used with a PC -- nor #84 -- nor #95 -- nor #105.
