ok, so i took out the switch panels to repaint them and decided to take out the trim around the radio and the stick shift and am painting them white. Heres what i've done so far
1. I removed the trim and cleaned it off real well with dawn (dirt and grease remover).
2. I then took some 400 grade sand paper (it was either that or 100 cuz thats all i had in my garage) and sanded the hell out of it.
3. After that i cleaned all the dust off from sanding and used a hair dryer to make sure its completely dry before paint.
4. Then i put a ton of very light coats over it untill i'm satisfied with the color.
5. Now i'm letting it dry and wondering to myself wether i should put some sort of polyurethane clear coat on top.
The spray paint i used is called "pure white" from oreilly auto parts... do y'all know of any auto-polyurethane spray can i can use or what kind of substitutes i could use instead of that?
thanks,
will
