I'm doing a full respray on a Kingswood (my first attempt, colour is not metallic). Should I do each panel separately or do the door and lid jams and then put it back together for a closed-door spray? (after that I have a Premiere in metallic gold to do). cheers & thanks.
Being it’s your first respray I’d say paint everything apart .that and it’s a solid Color so it can’t really stuff up or look different providing you spray the same amount of coats and have the same gun setup . See if you can paint the quarters , door/boot jambs , roof and engine bay all at once . Then do the doors bonnet boot etc . If you can hang the doors up paint inside and out at once . Same with boot and bonnet although may be easier/safer to lay those flat . Read the technical data sheet for the paint you use which will tell you gun setup pressures etc also mixing ratios , flash off times etc . Hope that helped mate
Hi mate. I watched the vid on the dna channel when you paint the inside of the doors. When you do the drop coat do you drop your gun pressure or just hold it further away from the panel and have you masked right to the edge of the outer door skin? Cheers
Hi Dave . Correct, air pressure was dropped to around 15psi and the gun did come back to roughly an arms distance for the drop coat . Masking the insides can be masked either to the outer skin edge or sealer edge . Or you can make a soft edge and put it anywhere on the insides by the time you paper the door and the rest of the jambs no paint ever gos behind the door . Hope that helps mate
@@crazydave7375 correct . Same technique, it’s required for any metallic or pearl Color candy Basecoat 3 layer pearl etc . Solid Color’s it’s not needed
@@crazydave7375 their alright hey! I love mine . I actually thought about making a polycarbonate block to suit my vacuum but we’ll see . Watch this space
