Re: 67 SWB 4x4
To shoot Raptor you need to have the metal in epoxy primer. Otherwise it might chip or scratch through and rust.
We actually use a pretty good process:
Sandblast all metal to white - no shading or nothing.
Within 30 minutes shoot with DP90, a epoxy primer.
Let sit in sun for a day, or indoors for a week.
(Our temp is routinely 100+ surface temp for black primer)
Do any body work repriming if you go to metal.
Shoot black parts with Acrlic Enamel Black: Flat, Egg shell, semi-gloss, gloss.
For colored parts we base coat clear coat.
You can shoot Raptor at any time during the process, but paint will not stick to it very well, and does not make sense to do that.
You can get clear Raptor and have it tinted to match the BC color.
Will not have the gloss, and might look a little different.
Box comes with three cans and a gun, $ 100.00
A box did the 67 4x4 cab bottom, both side of front inner fenders & rear fender extensions, bottom side rear fenders, gas tank, bed bottom.
Pull tape before it dries or you will look goofy with tape on it for ever.........
