[quote=”turbo t” post=25129][quote=”Nick” post=25088]I finished painting the front end of my Eclipse off the car, and after I re-assembled it I saw a horrid buttmatch between panels. I know I made a few mistakes
The color is R70, Patriot Red. A deep burgundy metallic, pretty transparent
I shot the fenders over black primer, but the bumper+lip over grey. The fenders look much darker and the bumper looks lighter than the hood.
So basically, can I [url=http://homepainter.co.uk/]Painters and Decorators in London[/url] 1500 grit and try to blend in the panels to make a better match? My doors are lighter than the fenders, but the bumper is lighter than both. So I’m basically trying to blend 3 different hue’s… terrible[/quote]
I would scuff the parts to be blended with 1000g 1500g wet
then apply sealer to the panel edges and melt the sealer edges then base as normal then clear all panels
[url=http://www.lgcdecorators.co.uk/bromleypainters.html]Painters and Decorators in Bromley[/url]doing it propper i would use a sealer on the whole fender the blend sealer onto the door edges and the bumper allow to flash then base up the flenders blending colour into doors and bumper extending every coat then clear the full job
