Use a good, flat paint stick for everything except your final sanding before paint, but the trick is to sand in a diagonal "X" pattern from the top to the bottom of the beltline. That way you'll not leave any flat spots.
For your final sanding before paint I used a semi-hard rubber block with 400 wet. For the parts that curve around a corner you can just use your hand but always work in a diagonal "X" pattern. | | |
