I could not get logged on so had to start new login but have been on before and learned a lot...Thanks!! The latest project is a 1993 z28 Camaro. I have always wanted to use the Baldwin Motion scheme from the 60s and 70s...some of you older folks remember! I am looking for a little help as I have never done such extensive two tone work. I have always heard to work from the smallest color to the largest, but in this scheme the colors are both fairly large. The design is basically the rear deck with a side stripe coming to a point at the door plus a wide stripe over the top and hood. I am looking at SPI Dark Red for the primary and white as the secondary. Here is my thoughts as far as sequence....where am I wrong?
Sand and scuff entire car and prep for paint. ( Is 600 too fine is body is overall sound with little repairs)
White epoxy primer over all
Regular 2k primer and block
Reduced white epoxy as sealer
Lay down red base coat all over
As soon as ready, mask off the rear deck, top stripe, and side stripe and lay down white over these areas
2-3 coats of Universal clear.
Concerns: The car has installed ground effects and rear wing so there is lots of plastic. I have never used adhesion spray before but have always been on all metal cars. Is this necessary? Also, how long after base coat can I safely tape off areas? Should I use intercoat at any point before spraying clear?Should i reverse the color sequence?
I appreciate your time and experience....
