As we on the topic;
1)How long should you wait for the primer to fully cure before applying paint?
2)How long should you wait for the coat of paint to dry before applying the next coat?
3)How long does clear coat take to cure?
4)If you're double clearing,how long should you wait after applying the first set of clear coat before you rub down and clear again?
5)Does leaving a vehicle in the sun after applying clear coat make a difference?
6)Does double clearing make a drastic difference?
ok so i am NOT a painter by trade ..if you want your pc fix yea... dats me.....but i will attempt to answer.....
1. primer does cure ???
i say follow the instructions on the primer.
priming bare metal may be different from priming a surface that already had a previous paint job on it.
also surface prep may be different.
i always thought is to do metal work.... then rust proof and prime then sand down... reapply primer where necessary...... guide coat & sand down ...tack cloth it and get ready for actual paint.....
2. if you doing multiple coats of paint some painters say 10-15 mins - some say 15 -30 mins....
the thing about doing multiple coats is it needs to be done right and the area must be free from dust particles as if any dust settles on the first layer you may not know until its too late....
3.. clear coat curing - have no clue.. some say 3-5 days.... check the clear coat manufacturer....
4. if by double clearing you mean flow coating....
check you the youtube channel called " the gunman"
i'll link it for you....
>>>
5. i wouldnt say leave it in the sun to get cured. reason is clear coat has UV inhibitors which are added to clear coat to prevent the color below from getting faded and dull.
if you put clear coat while its semi wet in the sun.. The UV inhibitors wont be able to protect the paint below and you may be actually causing more harm than good.
6... yes to flow coating... it makes it look more wet and smooth and the gloss is good.....
further questions you can talk to spann... he is the resident paint-ologist on tuner......
Thanks for the advice fellas.rspann wrote:Allyuh disturbing mih. I dealing with a mental case in a next thread . But.
1. Different primers and hardeners have different times. 24 hrs is very safe.
2. Flash off times vary according to reducer and temperature ,so read the instructions. Ten to fifteen minutes is good.
3. Most clear coats cure in 48 hrs . Leaving it longer to dry is better if buffing as all the solvents get enough time to evaporate I leave paint for a week before buffing. Heat curing accelerates the process. Just like a bake room.
4.Double clearing gives a better finish , but it's also unnecessary unless you looking for show finish. The clear can be sanded the next day and re-cleared. I did cars with double and triple clear. The results are outstanding.
5. Make sure to follow the mixing instructions to a T. Less hardener (or more) causes under or over catalysing which causes problems which I won't go into now.
I think one tuner mentioned paint cost $700 so you could pm him to find out where.
One thing I forgot, if you see paint crazing or peeling , don't try rubbing it and priming, you will end up with the same problem. Remove it , epoxy prime and then do any repairs . That is a very technical process though.

1) their dad/uncle used to be the baddest painter there was long time
2) real plenty good names (known painters) learn their work in their dad/ uncle garage. Some sad story about workers thieving out from the garage or men just coming and learn the work then leaving.
3) they woulda learn the work and be the baddest out here now but that fumes thing does firetruck up the lungs real bad so they got advised against it. (Apparently PPE and safe techniques is for people in foreign only)
When you visit the garage it’s always;
1) a set of old car, crashed car blocking up their driveway at the side of their house leading into the garage itself to the back.
2) a set of crash car in the road. Grass growing in some
3) neighbors who hate them
4) a “paint boot” at the back of the garage with no access to it because of the line of parked cars in the driveway. Because of this they paint cars in the driveway, even seen some car fender/ doors etc painted by the gate in the road.
Practices like
1) using customer’s vehicle to run about as a service vehicle once it’s there
2) not even a fire extinguisher present for emergency
3) when they scrap cars they put the pieces on the hood and even on the hood of other cars so they could “see it” when they ready for it.
Business practices like
1) yea boi Daz small thing a lil 1200 and 2 days you will get tru good.. 2 weeks later well I didn’t get the paint for the price I get it last time and rain real fall so you know I ain’t wanna give you bad work but I get it done for a lil 2000. Ah next man woulda charge at least 3.
2) take the work, park up car (Maybe even drive it around) keep it for 3 weeks then actually do work on it for two days and say good things take time
Oh lord and gypsum screw. It seem like they learn in school that it’s the universal screw of planet earth. If it needs to fasten use two gypsum screw.
And of course and runs, fish eye etc... it eh buff yet inno when you buff all that gone it come back like glass.
