I have just shot a wet coat of reduced epoxy as a sealer for my black base / clear. I am using all SPI products (2k / epoxy sealer / black base / universal clear) on a fiberglass Cobra replica body and panels. The sealer turned out nice except for a few small bugs and small defects. I plan to sand out the bugs with 800, apply some more glazing putty to small areas (pinholes found afterward) and then re-shoot with epoxy as a sealer.
My question is, after those small areas are repaired can I just spot shoot those areas with reduced epoxy as the sealer? Assuming the epoxy will be sitting in the un-repaired areas past the recommended time frame for the base, can I just scuff up the over all body / panels (3M Scotch-bright maroon - 800 grit) before applying my base coat?
I ask because if I follow the "perfect paint job" article to the letter it sounds like I would need to re-shoot the entire body. This would likely lead to more trash, repair & re-shoot cycles until perfect? The likelihood of me getting it perfect with no nib sanding, etc is unlikely.
Thanks!
