Default Painting Questions

I have a few questions befor my car is painted tomarrow. Im doing most of the work myself and have some noob questions.

I plan on using Fiji Blue Pearl, someone told me Ill see every little scuff mark ect once the project is done. Is this true or shananagans?

Also, I plan on using more then one coat, more then likely 2-3 paint and the same in clear.

Do I need to sand between each coat or can I put down say two coats of paint sand and then do my clear coats?

Thanks in advance!

My original thread is more of a work in progress and I Felt this was a whole different topic.

my final sand is 800 grit before i start shooting color, also i use 1000-1200 to sand dirt out of the color.just make sure you let it dry completely. And always tack before you spray your next coat.
