Do a search. I have been there, done that and took a bunch of pictures.

Invariably the next question is paint, Duplicolor works fine. They do not match 100% but you cannot tell - unless you spray a body panel, yuck!

Past that, just use "regular painting techniques" with the rattle can. First couple coats should be LIGHT!

Sand, paint, (wait a week) and then prime and seal. If you want to know why? You'll have to read the article…but you can always PM for ???s.

Good luck and TAKE YOUR TIME! You can rush and get trash you have to live with. No one ever asked, "Did you get it done fast?" They just see the result….paint or rattle can - the results will be what you put into them.
