i am about to paint my WW RS bodykit myself.
just have no clue about how to start. never done body works before.
the kit is made by fiberglass i guess.
what should i do? how can i do a good job?
what should i do for the prep? do i have to sand it?
then paint it, and apply clear coat?
is that all?
please give me some idea, a little more detail would be the great.
thanks a lot!!!

 

i highly recommend having a experience paint shop to do it.

 

sand fine grid paper 800 or better
primer
sand again 1000 or better
primer
sand again wet 1200
paint 1st coat

sand 1200 wet

clear coat

Ya but some people (like myself) don't have mad cash to have a body shop do everything.

I am currently prepping my WW urethane kit. I simply skuff the urethane with 120 grit sandpaper, then start spraying layers of primer that I bought from wall mart. After 4 layers or so, I break out the super fine wet sandpaper, and sand all the pieces down so they are nice and smooth. Then I take a tack cloth and go over the pieces, then take it to the shop for painting.

Make sure you have a flex agent added to the paint so it doesn not crack so easily or "spiderweb".
