I'm about to buy sandpaper for a complete respray of my car (Acura Integra). The car needs some some body repair (rust spots, minor dents, stripping of hood & roof) and will be coated in epoxy, 2K primer, sealer, basecoat, clearcoat. You can see the car here: http://www.spiuserforum.com/forum/we...repainting-car
Can you confirm this is the correct grit progression?
EPOXY
P80 - strip paint / bare metal prep for epoxy
"red" scuff pad - prep for filler/primer in contoured areas
P180 - existing paint prep for epoxy / prep for filler/primer (if epoxy has sat for 7+days) /
2K URETHANE PRIMER
P180 - initial primer block sand
P320 - block sand primer
P400 - prep for sealer
SEALER
P600 - prep for basecoat
BASE COAT
CLEARCOAT
P1500 - wet sand clearcoat
P2000 - wet sand clearcoat
How much of each should I get in discs (DA/RO sander) and rolls or sheets?
