single stage paint.

Post by Zorm »

Got the ole girl panted with single stage last year, been gently working out some orange peal with cut and polish. Du mass me took the bed off without taking off the rear bumper and gouged the paint down to the bare metal on one of the corners, also made a small nick in the tailgate. So can i just feather sand, epoxi prime and repaint?

Sand it good, try to get a good color match, feather the edges. Duck soup.!

1st stage complete, feather sanded, prepped and epoxi-primed all small areas, also did under the hood. Will do some light sanding of the primed edges and shoot color again. I have some left over paint, need to mix and spray, hopefully get close enough match.
