Wow. This is amazing. I heard about this on another forum, it was linked here.
I read about it last night, and i bought the supplies today.
Im ready to do a test section on a door TODAY
This is perfect for me.
My only questions is prepping.
I want to do this on a black '79 malibu, the paint is pretty oxidized.
Do i need to sand to bare metal? or can i paint right over the oxidized paint.
I know in your first post, you said prep as normal, fix bondo and all, but i havnt found much about my situation.
I amreading everything you have posted, and compiling a step by step process.
This is great.




I did this to a door that was in bad shape, some bondo, some rust, some old paint, some primer. I just went over it with 80 grit on a rubber block, then smoothed it out with one of those foam sanding blocks (150 grit I think) until it was smooth. Didn't take me long. As long as it's smooth I think you should be fine, but if you want to do some testing on a bad surface I'm sure lots would like to look at the results.
