Re: Painting with Graphics Question
Thanks Dion for the help.
I will be using solvent based basecoats. So you say I can mask off the first color basecoat, which will be Silver, then spray the second color, which will be the Candy Apple Red, then clear over that? I am afraid the first coat without clear would pull away with the tape.
I will be practicing with some body parts I have first. Had a bad experience recently with my friends 64 Falcon he had body work and painted "professionally" (10 K ) and masking tape over some painted parts would pull away paint! It was painted Candy Apple Red with silver basecoat.
Since this is maybe not a "dime rocket" it is "50 cent rocket" The Candy Apple Red is being donated as leftover from the Falcon Project which gave me the idea for the 2 tone job since i already have the Silver base coat. He also gave me a really good Matrix AG40 Clearcoat. Basically I already have the paint, I don't want to spend $ on that. I need to get my 396/325 BBC back together plus get a Torque Converter.
Here is pic of car today. I am missing passenger side front fender extension plus I really need a new trunk which I have one on the radar I will be picking up couple weeks.
