.....Where can i get the 2k primer from??....
Is there anything more specific i have to ask for??
First thing to do is goto you local automotive paint supplier. Have a chat to them, and then find another one and have a chat to them. I like Standox, and Protec (I think that's how they spell it).
But i'm not a professional painter, so it's probably best to speak to them first.
Same goes with the compressor/gun etc. They can tell you everything you need.
From memory:
1. BareMetal. (fresh from the plastic bead blaster). Seam weld
Clean and strip disk/ sand paper 600 to 800 grit all over. Clean with appropriate thinners.
2. Etch prime everywhere ASAP.
3. Body mods with metal removal etc. Sand blast rust off etc.
Re-Sand areas which have no paint and Etch prime over sections that have been repaired.
5. Sand whole car with 800, and then prime with a good 2K primer.
6. Get stuck into the car with SikaFlex to seal all joins, gaps, etc.
LEAVE AT LEAST 2 WEEKS to let the sikaflex dry out and outgas. 2K primer sticks really well to cured sikaflex.
7. Now is the time to do your body repairs with spray putty/bog and sound deadener.
Each time you bog/spray putty, sand it with 800 and spray the 2k primer over the top to seal. Repeat if necessary.
8. Once all bog/putty repairs are done, hit it with a final coat of primer and check that everything is straight.
9. After this is done leave it for a
maximum of a week, lightly sand with 1000, and grab that booth and put your final coats of <AHEM> WHITE PAINT 2k paint <AHEM>
10. After paint is done, hit the whole car with Wurth rust prevention wax, or some good quality deoderised (non stinky) fish oil. Spray the living daylights out of the car and clean up all drips. Chassis rails, roof, boot, inside outside etc.
Fish oil is great stuff, because you can thin it down with turps. Do a couple of coats in the appropriate areas.
That's what I can remember!
