Default 2000 grit is enough to cut

So, I scratched the Vette really bad. Don't flip out, nearly all of it came out with wetsanding. But my point here, I started with 2000 grit to be conservative, and it really didn't take long at all to take the scratch out.

Maybe if you were doing an entire car I could see cutting with 1500 in one direction, then 2000 in the other to save time. But if you're working on a small area, 2000 is sufficient. Don't get carried away with a rougher grit and sand through your clear coat.
