Without even wiping it, cleaning it, sanding it bak.
i just decided about 10minutes ago too give my bumper bar it a quick coat in my garage with a silver can, while thinking too myself *heh... wats the chances off this stuff not drizzling off* and the paint seemed too stick betta than ever! (like supa glue i should say)
thats compared too when i actually went thro the hassle off sanding it back than wiping it over with metho...
stuffs me why :s |

Depends on how you spray it too.
U need to build it up and very light layers so the paint has time to dry and stick. If u just squirt it all on it will just run off.
Also.. u gotta use primer. That goes without saying.. |

metho bad
prep-wash good
paint will stick to anything straght away. preperation is what helps/makes it stick over time (ie longer than 1-2 months) _________________

i saw the funniest thing in a KMART car park, an 1997 model camry, that was originally blue, sprayed completely white with cans and half of it was peeled off. not a drop of primer in sight! |
