    Stripping plastic bumper

    Hey guys, got a bumper job here to do. It’s obvious it’s new aftermarket and been painted semi recently. The prep appears poor. Good enough to not blow off with blow gun but poor enough that it has a million stone chips already. Is there a stripper I can use on this plastic cover that will make...

    Sealer/primer “tinting” ?

    So at the moment all I have on hand is white sealer. I use the sealer for 2k primer and sealer just not reduced as 2k. Anyhow, I’m touching up a small area on a dark blue Hyundai. It’s just a section maybe a foot long on the plastic rocker molding. I’d prefer to have my primer darker than white...

    Burnt sheet metal, epoxy to paint?

    So I have a door that was from a truck that had an interior fire. Trust me this would never be my choice for a replacement but such is life. He was “saving money” lol. I explained to him after he’s actually spending more money. But anyway…when I say this is a budget job that’s an understatement...

    Euro with Polar

    Temps are a little cool here in NY. Is there any issues I could be looking at if I mix euro 4:1:2 with medium activator and reducer with 1-2oz of polar? Or will the medium reducer and activator cause issues? Do I need to use fast with polar or is my thinking off? Thanks!

    Ad promotor, blends, 222s???

    Think I already know where this will go. But I know someone that sprays axalta line and uses 222s which is labeled as an adhesion promoter but is basically used a lot for wet beds for blends. I'm assuming I don't want to use SPI in this manor? Intercoat is my only option? Or a clear base from my...

    Speed clear vs production/polar?

    Just curious about any pros and cons of either? Production could be speedy with the right hardner and polar correct? What would be pushing it? I suppose the speed clear is fairly self explanatory as it's made for speed. I look forward to your thoughts, thanks!
