Lol factory peel the natural peel from the manufacturers factory = good
(This is the peel you try to copy when clearing cars , unless you want some show quality flat surface BLAH blah)
Orange peel whether from too wet or too dry of clear ,bad gun settings, bad technique =bad
And lol the re coat time of clear is hardly within a hour spraying your first coat of clear.
W.I.P. Repainting 2000 Tundra
Chris, it's been a couple of weeks since I sprayed the clear, so I will need some sanding or scuffing. Does this change your opinion any? What is prep paste? Would a good scrubbing with a grey Scotchbrite pad do the same? Thanks.

Prep paste is a light abrasive cleaner that's it , it's mainly used for raw aftermarket/factory bumpers to do it being getting passed from truck to truck getting who knows what on it. Some people use it before they clear/blend panels to be extra clean. Ajax or comet mixed with water is the same thing as prep paste . Your welcome

There are many clears you can recoat within 8 hours and some within 24 hours especially with a home DIYer who has not let the vehicle out into sunlight or baked the clear in a booth. The tech sheet for the clear will tell you.
But...two weeks...yeah you need to prep it. Sanding is best of course. Scotch pad alone will not do it. On a hood or roof, I'd sand it. Here's the brochure for the scuff paste: http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/media/1577 ... -06013.pdf |
