Painting Underside Of Car

Recommended Posts

stuart_knight6

I have just completely restored my car and rebuilt most of the floor, wings and engine bay. I am now ready to paint the interior and underside, but I am unsure of what products to use and which order to use them.

 

The shell has been sandblasted and then etch primed.

 

My assumption.

 

Etch prime - U-pol

Seam seal - Tiger seal

Prime

Stone chip

Body colour

 

I am along the right lines and should i use any wax underseal products?

That sounds about right to me, but I'd suggest an extra layer of primer between the stonechip and body colour - just to ensure good adhesion. It's not always 100% necessary, but you only want to be doing this job once :)

As above, i did the same on a previous resto, the layer of primer on top of the stonechip is a good adhesion point for the top coat.

 

I take it the primer/top coat is 2k?
