thanks fox, blocked with 180, then 400, then machined with 600. for the 2nd coat i used 600 grit dry on a soft interface pad, sprayed 2 coats base and sanded again but with 1200 grit wet, then 2 more coats of base. tried to limit any buffing on this thing because its a limo.
December 11, 2010 at 7:53 am #26076looks good. what the hell happen to it that something that new needed a complete repaint?

i was asking because it seems to have no orange peel! so im guessing the trick is to reduce the orange peel on the primer before you shoot basecoat?
[quote=”Ben” post=16096]Looks good.
Can’t say I would want to sand that beast that many times, though.
Post some pics when its assembled.[/quote]
thanks ben, sanding it wasnt all that bad, most of the body is flat. the plastic work i did on the other hand made me feel like :deadhorse when i was done.
