Our painted in my plastic trim I have let it dried for 48 hours after my three coats.. The paint I bought did not have high enough gloss, I have purchased a high gloss and some 2000 grid sandpaper.. My question is: before I apply The clear coat, I wet sand correct? After I wet sand, I wipe clean with alcohol and then add the clear coat? Am I correct?

[@mcgurrentertainment]

It's not a requirement. However It's typically a good idea to scuff the surface (of a fully cured product) before applying fresh coats. This gives the paint or clear a surface to adhere to.

Awesome stuff. Looking forward to seeing if you can get a good mix for Kona 👀

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Thank you!!! I have a few good ideas in mind 😉

If I'm waiting the 7 days before painting the second color, can i still put it back on till then? I realize I'm risking scratches doing this. TIA

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Yes, you can. Besides, the clear coat layer may hide minor scratches.

Simply put...AMAZING, great job and love both custom engine covers! By the way, can you tell me where I can find the strut tower covers on both 5.0s? I noticed you have a different set than on the Kona blue one. Thank you!

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Thank you very much. That's a great question, we ordered them from www.custompony1.com/ He does lots of custom work, and the product always comes out looking great.

This withstand the heat of the engine? Or do you take it of for driving?

[@mcgurrentertainment]

Yep. The cover was made with vinyl Ester Resin, and we did a temperature test at the end of the build. Heat is not an issue. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYO9k4l9gc6WiZI
