Awesome vid mate very informative. I've got a question for ya. I'm working on a r33 at home. Its been resprayed in its life once before. Do I need to go to metal or can I just sand with 180, 240, 320 and then prime? What would be your thoughts?

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

Ok so you don’t need to go bare metal . Bare metals are really for older classic cars to give them another life . If your just wanting a Color change or to fix a few things up then sanding with 240-320 then priming is fine . The only time you would need to go as low as 180 is if you were sanding body filler . Cheers mate

@@BogDustForBreakfast thanks mate. I uploaded a video a few weeks ago giving an update. Feel welcome to check it out.

Thanks Mark for sharing your knowledge. :) Saw a few cars suffer from the 'tiger stripe' syndrome at the last cars and coffee I took the Willys too. Seemed to be worse on roofs. That is from not doing the 50% overlap correct?

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

That and from not applying a effect coat before clear

[@takemebacktothen]

Really cool! I'm sure this is a silly question but... Do I have to sand the last coat of black before applying the metal flake?

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

Providing your painting your object all in the same day , no sanding is required . Just sand your primer and start painting . If you have sprayed your black and left it over night then a scuff with grey scotchbrite is required to key the surface

Can you put metal flake into hardener??

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

I’m not sure why you would want to do that

[@CowOnMobile]

@@BogDustForBreakfast I want to raptor line my car but I want to add flakes. I'm not a professional im just really trying to get a cheap good looking paint job. I was going to just put flakes into hardener and hopefully that would work. I dont have a spray gun to put clear. I thought I could work around it

[@CowOnMobile]

@@BogDustForBreakfast raptor line comes with a substance then apply hardener then color and spray but I was thinking just add blue flake to hardener then mix it and spray

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

@@CowOnMobile are you talking about raptorliner the protective coating ? And your wanting the put metal flake on the top ? That’s a good question . If it was me I’d be contacting UPOL and asking their tech person . As a guess and something to try on a test panel , is while the raptor is still wet use a dry flake gun and spray flake on it . Apart from that I wouldn’t recommend spraying hardner on top or raptor . Again this is all questions for Upol who makes raptor

[@CowOnMobile]

@@BogDustForBreakfast how come I can’t put the flake in the raptor liner bottle. I’ve been doing hours of research and can’t find anything.

Why do you spray black paint on and then sand it off ?

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

black paint is sprayed so when i sand the part i can see what's been sanded and what hasn't

[@rudy1574]

@Bog Dust For Breakfast ahhhh. Ok that makes since.

Look up "guide coat" on Google ;)

What mask do you wear. Hard to get good advice as supplied air is always advised

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

I wear a sunstrum mask

[@AndreGacitua-if2ge]

@@BogDustForBreakfast what cartridges do you use? Can u get cartridges for 2pak isocyanates ?

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

@@AndreGacitua-if2ge the mask uses 3 filters . Pre filter then a particle filter then a organic gas filter class A2 . This setup is designed for 2k paints with isocyanates
