I spoke to my auto paint supplies place about
this and they were happy to recommend 2 Pak topcoat over an acrylic undercoat.
Undercoat is undercoat they said, spray what you like over it.

the guy who i bought my 1600 from had recntly stripped his car back to
metal, prime painted etc..did the works.
The final paint job ws not great, the paint did not look too good.
Anyway i recently talked to a spray painter about getting a respray, he
actually came out to my house to give her a look over...second time he has
done this for me. He said that the body was good and straight etc and he would
be happy to rub her back and give her a few coats of 2pak. thing is the
original paint work was acrylic and i figured you would have to get a 2pak
undercoat. I offered to do the prep work to save some money and he said he
would have to do the prep work to make sure it was good enough to spray over.
The work would obviously be guaranteed so i am wondering if this is really
posible. ie 2pak over acrylic primer etc
cheers all

hi,
my brother works as a spray painter ( thats all he does, no body work) at
bruce lellman crash here in renmark, he said that it depends on what type
of undercoat u use ( i.e 2 pak or acrylic) and over what u spray
the undercoat. if you prime over bog repairs ideally you should
finnish rubbing yoiur bog work with 120 grit or finer to minimize any
sanding scratch coming back up thru the paint at a later date.
24
hours should be long enough for the primer to cure, wether 2pak
or acrylic. if you get any shrinkage coming thru or map edging , its
probally more likelly to be from the prep work , more so than the drying
time. you can also run innto trouble if you prime over acrylic paint
that has not had the edge feathered properly. alot of people tend to
blame the undercoat or dryingtime than the actual prep
work.
something to think about .! mark k ----- Original
