Well this is for people that dont do the work themselfs cuz everyone says you shouldnt if you dont kno what your doing if you follow a DIY you can do just about anything this is the first body pain work ive ever done its not perfect but its 100% better then what it was


They said dont paint it cuz i dont kno what im doing HAHHAHAH

 

process?

 

x2 i need to redo mine lol

 

wet sand with 1000, 1500 then 2,000 grit sandpaper.
buff it out using meguiars ultimate compound. thats the best stuff i've used so far.

 

I did 1000 grit wet sand added soap to at water squirt bottle helps the sand paper slide then scuffed with a automotive brillo pad then sanded with 2000 then scuffed again washed it good the sprayed 2 coatts of the dupli color clear coat I would recommend 3-4 coats

 

nice job.

 

nice ,

 

I just tried to do my hood. Huge EPIC FAIL.

 

what happen lol

 

I painted my hood yesterday and it came out "OK" but had a few runs and spots I had missed so I resanded the hood this morning and tried it again.

When I sprayed the clear it turned out looking like freddy krugers face, kinda like my hood had 3rd degree burns or something. Im gonna sand it off and give it another try but if it doesnt turn out right this time im going to just take it to a professional...

Any idea why it might have done this? Like I said it came out ok yesterday but looks like crap the second time around...

 

did u wet sand it the second time and re wash it

 

Gonna try to do this with my duckbill tomorrow... it has a lot of scratches/blemishes/fading, no deep scratches or anything too bad though. Hopefully it'll freshen it up a bit

 

need to redo mine

 

did you ever redo your duckbill
