There should be no bubbles in the pain, any bubbles from a roller will pop as the paint lays out. I have never had bubbles.

Sanding is only required if you let the first coat cure. Its a very good idea to do all your coats in one say - no sanding and its bonding better.

If you are not happy with the level of gloss of if you get some trash in the paint, then you can sand/buff it out. The paint is easier to sand/buff withint e first couple days of application.

Just an FYI, there is a nice feature article in Boating Magazine this month on the EMC paint - they refinish the sides of an older boat.
