I have pulled a number of parts which I will soon need to paint... the parts are large and as its bodywork I need the paint finish to be perfect and remain so.
my question is what prep do I need to have done... I don't have an oven large enough for the parts, they have been pulled for at least 1 month and left in the house but will have only seen 20deg... is this enough.
Also if I use a high quality 2 pack laquer can I clear coat them and then later primer and paint this laquer to a perfect finish?
The main reason I want to clear the parts is some of them will be visable carbon with some areas painted... I mean I cant hide all that loverly carbon
