No there's no bog under that, just primer over the old paint job.



are you sure no bog under the old paint?

also another issue is that there is old paint under there!
- why did you primer ontop of the old paint? there is no need, primer is only for bare metal and bog. i mean you could primer on top of paint but it is a waste and no benefit at all
- did you rub the old paint first to get the clear off? if not it could crack and peel off in the near future
- when you rubbed the primer did you use a block or by hand? you should use a block as it could cause low spots using just your hand


As sure as I can be that there is no bog. The bog isn't the problem though, I get the same effect when I paint my wheelie bin. I primed the paint so I could get a better look at the car, The old jub was a little "busy" and it was hard to find all the dings and runs so I could fix em up. Didn't help much though, when I got the colour on there were heaps more that I missed. I sanded the original paint with P400 and most sanding is using a block, I do all the fiddly bits by hand.

I think it may just be my inexperience and the metallic paint. See what happens tomorrow anyhow.

Tim.
