Urgent advice needed: Spray painting Sun, 29 December 2002 08:12 Go to previous message
Hi everybody, I need some super urgent advice. I am about to leave to spray my Brother in Laws Datsun 1600. We are spraying a metallic gunmetal grey. I know that we need to spray the colour, tack ragging between each coat and then on the final coat don't tack rag and leave the metallic dust on there. Then pretty much straight away we spray the clear coat. I know we spray a few coats without tack ragging, the final coat we leave and in two or three weeks time we 2000 wet and dry and then polish it. BUT, what are peoples opinions about the final dilution of the last coat of clear? Some say make it really dilute i.e. more thinners than clear, others say spray same dilution as preceding coats. What are peoples opinions on this? and how does the preceding information about the colour coats etc sound?

Thanks for your help and advice

Daniel
