I started the painting today. I will be using a 4 step procedure. Adhesion promoter, primer, basecoat, & clearcoat. I got most of the paint at this site.
Automotive Touch Up Paint from PaintScratch - Order Pro Grade Paint - PaintScratch.com ( photo 1 ) ! - Scuffed up the pieces with 400 wet or dry. 2 - wiped everything down with wax & grease remover. 3- Wiped it all down again with a tack rag. 4 - Sprayed the Adhesion promoter - 1 light coat flash time 5 min., 1 wet coat flash time 10 to 15 min. no longer than 30 min. 5_ Sprayed the primer - 1 light coat & 2 wet coats, flash time between coats 5 min. ( photo 3 ) Going to let the primer dry & I don't know if I will get to spraying the basecoat & clearcoat this weekend but Monday for sure.

Sprayed the basecoat & clearcoat yesterday.
WEAR A RESPIRATOR FOR THE SPRAYING. I wore a respirator for all of the spraying. For sure wear one for the 2K clear. It is a very toxic clear. Your lungs won't work too good clearcoated. 1 - I lightly sanded the primer with 600 wet or dry. 2 - Wiped down the pieces with a tack rag. 3 - Sprayed 3 coats of base. Flash time between coats 5 min. Let dry for 2 hrs.( photos 1 & 2 ) 4 - Sprayed 3 coats of clear. Flash time between coats 10 min. (photos 3, 4, & 5 ) This clear is 2 component clear & after activated has a pot life of about 12 to 18 hrs. So make sure you have everything wanted to spray ready to go all at once. A description of the 2K clear is here 2K clear coat: Spraymax Please don't beat me up too bad for the orange peal in photo 4, it really doesn't look too bad in real life. Going to let it dry today & start to reassemble tomorrow.
