I am looking to have someone finish the fiberglass work and paint the car.
What steps or stages should I be asking who ever does the car to see if they are covering all the bases?
I talked to one guy who said he would fill in all the seams, then DA sand the gel coat, fix pin holes.
I can't recall if he said put a primer on, I think he did.
Then apply the base coat, stripes, either 2 or 4 coats of clear (my choice if I wanted to spend the extra on 2 additional clear coats)
I was under the impression that multiple base coats are applied, maybe with sanding in between. Then again I am not familiar with all the steps in painting a car and the guy was giving teh basics.
(Did not help the wife was in a rush to go someplace and I was not able to probe deeper in the process the guy was going to do.
)
DV or someone else familiar with painting, would you be so kind as to detail the steps you do so that I can use that as the reference.
The guy said he uses all DuPont
Thanks.
Stages recommended for painting.
