Painting Prep/stripping..questions from novice
Hey...
Have some questions for the prep period between when the car is bare metal and the first layer of paint. Im a little green on this and there seems to be a lot of different brands/opinions etc. I read a lot of "I like to use" or "A friend of my mine did it this way" Here are the questions: After the car has been stripped to metal - What cleaner do you all use to prevent that 'instant rust' issue - Do you prime immediately? If so what brands are best? When is an etching primer used? After you put the primer on - you put the Guide coat to look for low spots/help with the sanding etc - How much of this guide coat do you put down and what brands are best? I think that I have down the Body filler - no more that 1/8" - 1/16" would be better - sand sand sand sand Assuming all is done above - and body work is good - should you put down another Primer/Sealer? If so what brand? Thanks as always Matt |
