hi, if you go to 2pak u dont have to go back
to bare metal, in fact u can use 2pak straight over acrylic primer. its
better if u use 2 pak primer as well, cause it fills a heck of alot better
than acrylic primer etc.... all u have to do is grind back any body work that
has crows feet, lifting body filler, flacking paint etc..... i am
not too sure on the price on 2 pack primer, but i think that its about 150-200
dollars for 4 litres including hardner, but depends alot on brand.
as for how much it would all cost
depends onb the condition of car. large tin of body filler is around 35-45
dollars, then you have paper etc...
use 36 grit to get a decent shape of
bog, then go over it with 80 or 120 dry rub then put primer over
that.
i use a longboard with the 36 grit on
that.

hi, i would use around 400-600 wet`n
dry. if its too smooth the paint wont stick
properly. my brother has gone away for holidays , and he would
have a pretty good idea of whats wot. if you still need info
he`ll be back on 16th jan.
acrylic is getting a bit old hat
now, you are better off using 2-pack. e.g protec 604
paint..

Subject: paint
does anyone here know much about paintint a
1600?
my paint is new but quite rough.
i am thinking of doing an acrylic job, well
getting someone to spray it for me.
If i did the prep work which is just sanding
back the car with 800 wet and dry to take the shine off.......i'm guessing
that is all...please tell me if i am wrong, How much should i pay for the
labour and paint....assuming that i don't use a booth?
How much should i pay for paint?
I was told it was group 4 paint and thus
expensive....it is a ford midnight blue that i am doing......any help is
appreciated guys.
regards
