paint process

[tonmarchelli]

i might be getting a cowl shortly and if i wanted to paint it (ive got the tools and such) what are the steps i should use, my kat is the lighter blue is it a single stage or two stage. would the process go somewhat like this?

is it sand, fill(if necessary) primer, spray, and clear then wetsand and buff (if desired)

thanks for any input.

that is pretty much it.

[tonmarchelli]

so it is a 2 stage and not a single? (stock i mean)

[UFO8MyCow]

what do you mean 2 stage?

[tonmarchelli]

paint and clear as opposed to just paint.

It's more like paint - paint - paint - clear - clear - clear

[UFO8MyCow]

it depends on the type of paint you get if you are just useing rattle cans than it it just 2-3 coats of paint and 2-3 coats of clear
