Just painted the beast with Flat Black rust paint, obviously the paint is a little rough and has its little pieces of dirt in the paint since I painted in a garage. But am I aloowed to sand it down with say a 1200 grit without the charlkboard effect staying there? Like will it still be flat black......

Give me some ideas

 

wet sand and do another coat

 

painting again is not an option

Lmao..sorry, it just seems that way lol

 

Because Im not wasting my time doing it again and the garage is already filled and the car untaped

I just want to know if I can sand it it all with 1000+ grit paper

 

1000 plus leaves some marks...
Imma try to do mine with 2000 grit...is there any higher grit??

 

you cannot expect to sand a basecoat, regardless of grit, and expect it to look normal WITHOUT re-spraying, etc.

 

Take it from Phan he knows how to paint.

 

clay bar?? lol
wet send with very light pressure might work??

 

I just remember seeing someone say they sanded there flat black and it still looked normal when I was searching, couldnt find it today though

Hopefully 1000 grit will work, this tremclad paint just doesnt lay smooth

 

Let me kno what happens man...my paint is ruff in places too..

 

2000 wet sanding with light pressure makes it super slick and make it shine a little more.

 

2000 grit holy ****

I dunno if I can grab that at Napa/Autozone

Thats the info I want though, wetsanding lightly and 2k grit

Works good?

 

I've bought 2000 grit at autozone before here in socal. You should be able to find it.

or wallmart or any hardware store....

 

yeah I just want to know if itll work or not though

 

 

it will work you take your time. It would be better it you put more coats of paint on.

 

 

a half *** job will look like a half *** job reguardless.

You should have taken notes from Slopokes car. Flawless and flat black.

Take the time to respray it again or just leave it as is.

 

Ive never had to sand, but I figure a 2000 grit would work.

Bump anyway

 

wet sand it then buff it out. i doubt youll need another coat.
