I asked the professionals that did my TR3 what they used.  Although there
are certainly other flaws (as I expected from a cheap paint job), there are
no fish eyes.  Evidently it works as well for them as it does for me.

Of course, it's no substitute for good surface preparation otherwise.  As I
learned many years ago, you can sand, and wire brush, and media blast, and
still not get all the silicone off.  But when you think you have the surface
absolutely clean, take a clean rag dampened with Arcyli-clean and wipe it
down.  The rag will be dirty.  Repeat until the rag is clean.
