I'm planning to have a first go at clear coating one or two small  pre-preg parts that have turned out with moderate pin-holing and smallish surface voids

I was considering coating the affected areas with epoxy, flatting back with medium grit paper and then spraying. 

Can anyone recomnend a tried and trusted 2k paint system and the size range of gun nozzle I should be looking at for good results?

Thanks

Mark

I do the same kind of thing but I brush the first coat which also pushes it into the porosity.

With a brush in one hand you spray coat it and just brush straight over it quickly. Then carry on with multiple spray coats and it just gets better and better.

For the brushing coat you need to apply enough by gun to be wet enough for brushing since it tacks off fast. Small areas are easier of course.



Does that make sense, brush application with a spray gun??
