I recently purchased my first SPI products. I have my suspension parts stripped and am just waiting for an opportunity to spray the in black epoxy. I have some experience spraying but have never applied epoxy and am excited to give it a try.
The suspension parts are a pretty straightforward strip, clean, and spray but I have been researching body prep. I am sanding the body panels when waiting on other items and finishing other "To Do" items. When sanding I have been careful to take off only PO color change (crappy) paint job and the original bc/cc down to original primer/base. In reading as many relevant post I have a question about epoxy adhesion.
It is recommended on the P car forms to leave the original underlying epoxy/primer as all panels except trunk deck are aluminum. The body shell, steel parts, are galvanized so it is recommended not to break thru when possible. If the OEM base, or as much as possible, is left intact is there any issue with adhesion of the SPI epoxy?
Plan is to go back with 55 line original 661 base and if compatible, SPI Euro clear. Pictures are, white
as bought, blue is color correct. Thanks in advance and this forum is full of awsome advice. Tim
