I need some help... Im going to be spraying my engine bay very soon and need some tips... if it goes well i guess ill be doing the whole car possibly
Im going to be doing it in a garage in a make shift sheets from my bed paint booth... im assuming i should wet the ground to keep dust down???? im not sure if the extra moisture around will effect the paint.
i guess it should go like this... let me know what you think and if im wrong...
Im going to take home some plastic beakers from chem supply to mix the paint, reducer, and hardener in figured it would be more accurate then paint measuring sticks and cups and they are free....
1. Wash it!
2. Mask it!
3. Sand down the paint with 500-600 grit sand paper.
4. Wash it Again!
5. After it drys lay down the primer thick nozzle on the gun.
6. Sand primer down with a 600grit
7. Wash again!
8. Spray down a light base coat of the paint allow it to dry spraying as fast as possible and keeping a wet edge.
9. Allow to dry then spray the second coat a little heavier.
10. Allow to dry for 90minutes or so and spray more coats if desired.
Unsure about here:
11. Wet sand the paint to get out any dirt or particles with 1000grit. Then buff the paint.
Might just skip to here:
12. Apply Clear coat wait 15-20 minutes between each coat applying enough till the surface is smooth (no metal flakes sticking out if a metallic)
13. Allow to dry.
Thanks for help in advance.
