Beautiful. I'm glad to see someone giving another old car the star treatment. It's going to be a good time riding around in this living room on wheels.
Here in Glendale Arizona that paint would have dried in 3 minutes at the high temperature of 117 degrees for us the next ten days we will be from 113 to 117 or higher
I left my freshly painted MKII MR2 Turbo for an entire year in the hot Texas sun. I’ve only ever wiped it down, it’s never even been washed. I wonder if that was a bad idea? It looks great but definitely needs a proper cut and buff.
@@negativeindustrial most 2k paint’s have a life of 7 years in use and I always put two extra coats of clear on and sometimes after a week of outside I’ll ultra fine wet rub the whole car down again and re clear it one more time aka flow coat the time you’ve left it out in heat is perfect in my opinion no sink back and if there’s any paint issues underneath the primer or with the base coat or clear in that time you’re good to cut n buff or flow coat lovely
I've been using the Sun for years. When I'm doing mud work a lot of it when I'm close before I prime I put that out in the sun for a day prime the mud work before I put it out in the sun for a day I will sand primer a little and put it in the sun. you talk about stuff shrinking
If you wanted to paint a car and have the best finish possible, be maintained off the gun. What's done differently? Different clear? Just less coats? Something else?

What did you use for a base on the firewall?
How soon is too soon? Just wait 24hrs?
Leave it a good week in the sun before cutting and buffing

Thanks for the detailed reply. I’ll definitely get it finished in fall once it cools down a bit.
I used to think that was a myth, since I was born...

Be on the lookout for Bird Strafing Runs >.
