Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I shot the last coat of primer at 5 this afternoon, then wet-sanded with 600 grit, prepped and ready to shoot. Don't forget to run a TACK CLOTH over everything right before you shoot.
Another trick if you see a speck of dirt or fuzzy while you are spraying is to half pull the trigger and only shoot air out to try and blow the speck off the panel. This only works of course if you haven't already stuck him with paint.

He practically did. Nice Job...which is an understatement. You have to be as proud as (or close to) the day you had your first child.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Houston, we have a problem.
Giant run on one rear side and orange peel all down the other upper side. Looks like a redo tonight. I'll tape off everything else that looks good and be able to really concentrate on just the upper sides. I was feeling the pressure last night of so much stuff to paint at once.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Yep, and I could then buff it down and pray I don't burn through the paint anywhere - or - since it is all taped up and so easy to spray....
The problem with counting on buffing is if you do burn through, you have to go back and completely retape/cover everything, blah, blah, blah = Nightmare.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
It's a real fine line between perfect wet coat and running on the floor. Sorry to see this happen to ya. Hope you have better luck on the second try.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I dnt know if this is ur first paint job or not but don't be scared of wet sanding and buffing. Especially a run cuz you've got to keep in mind that there's already to much paint there anyway. If you put three coats of clear on it you can do alot of sanding and buff before you burn through. Just my. 02 though.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Drew, have you ever used a painter nib file, their about 1-1/2" square and look like a file. Go over the run and it cut them down little by little, most paint supplies have them. I've also used a single edge razor blade, hold with both hands and drag over the run, it will also cut it down. Then wet sand and buff....Jim

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I think Drew has got this guys....The proof is in the pudding, as one might say. Drew you are making great progress and I could only hope to be as detailed on my build as you are with Young Frankenstein. Can't wait to see this beast together. I log on everyday just to see the progress. Keep up the hard work.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Hey, at least it was only on the upper areas! I hate it when you are spraying a long and then come back and see it ran! I tend to spray heavy and have to learn to walk away.
