featheredging could have been the problem , but a tinted wet on wet sealer might help
3M makes a nice plastic abrasive that will remove everything and clean the metal , clean and condition metal and then epoxy prime. when primer dries scuff and glaze with a good body filler then surface ,seal and paint
i find that the Mirka products work very well, remember that the area must be sanded uniformly and consistently
Used Onyx twice and got decent results , with a Sharpe Platinum 1. 4 setup laid flat with no peel or runs !
new guy :cheers guess you got more hunting fishing racing time!
is 285-16 an epoxy primer ?
yes wow!
Experience has taught me that Global BC > DBC > DBU in more ways than one , gun setup ,
proper thinner selection and a controlled consistent application usually yields great results . Always remember painting is an interactive process all about adjustments .I am not sure but I believe that DPLF can be used as a w o w sealer over poly primers.Etch then epoxy DPX 1791 possibly dont remember then epoxy wet on wet then topcoats
usually gun adjustments , proper reduction and temps or gun movement and distance usually a combination of these .
With all that after putting on base or pearl give the car a proper look over and if necessary scuff/remove the debris and blend on more base and pearl if necessary , let flash and tack off properly before applying clear a little patience goes a long way .
Wow thats a lotta CI for a small car , I am here in jamaica so pretty close and same climate .
I used to use Meguiars and 3 m even used farecla but I get fairly good results with fair effort
I would say Dynabrade first and i have used a Mirka Bulldog to good effect as well
The Valu Pro probably would not be as durable as DCC try delta or starthane
I have found that nearly all jobs are unique , I use a sort of charge out guide which use smaller increments
like for example 3 ounces of compound and divide the price by the unit cost with a small mark up. Just estimate a little
more than you will require and use the remainder as profits or even for redos.
