I'm painting a bumper off my car and need to know if i need to prime it or not. its sanded down with 600grit but clear coat is still on but the edges of the bumper are down to the bare plastic. wondering If I should prime it before i paint it.
Body shop said to just scuff it with grey pad and then base coat right on top

 

I'm by no means a professional painter, but I would scuff down the clear then prime it and paint it, otherwise the paint can flake back off...just what I've learned from doing my own bodywork

 

Pics of sanded bumper?

 

you want pictures of the sanded bumper. its just a sanded bumper

 

Call me crazy, but before I decide how to paint stuff I usually need to look at it.

You want a magic internet answer? Just scuff and paint, no worries!

 

Prime the areas where you sanded through or you will regret it...

 

well im just gonna prime it to be safe.
