paint spraying help

<< < (3/3)

Holmetech:
To do a proper job you should really use etching primer first.This eats into the metal and wont flake off like normal primer can do.
You can buy it in spray cans now, from shops that supply the trade with paint and sundries etc.(look in yellow pages)

Mist a guide coat of satin black over the primer,then wet flat it with 1000's.
Give it about 4 coats of top coat,then wet flat with 2000's.
Then polish up with cutting compound(Farecla G3 is best)then any polish that doesnt have silicone in.(just in case you want to paint it again another day)
Voila!
Job done. :)

Yeah but, if something goes wrong, that leaves you no time to correct it. Best make it 2 days before (if it were me)
