paint?

def right - those are plastic fairings, so plastic primer is a good idea.

then why dont you contact premchem - they sell all kinds of automotive paints.

they also probably have better advice than us tjops!!!

and think about it - a decent exterior sprayjob is about 12-15k. more if they strip things off instead of masking them off. and then we get to the interior - they have to strip everything (EVERYTHING) to do an interior sprayjob!!!

then spray a bit and then put it all back. why shouldnt that be a LOT more than an exterior spray job???

so 14k + 16k = 30k!!!

doesnt seem so bad to me - when you think about all the costs involved!

AS FAR AS MY EXPERIENCE GOES YOU NEED,
A PRIMER: NOT TOO SURE IF YOU NEED A SPICIFICK PRIMER COZ IVE PAINTED PLASTIC BEFORE & USED HS PRIMER(HIGH (SOLVENT)FILLING PRIMER FOR WETSAND) IF SO I DO HOWEVER THINK YOU WILL NEED SOME KIND OF ETCHPRIMER TO STICK TO PLASTIC THEN HS PRIMER SO YOU CAN WETSAND BEFORE BASE.
THE PAINT(BASE) YOU MOSTPROBABLY WILL NEED IS 2K BASE PAINT THAT YOU ALSO WETSAND AFTER APPLICATION & BUFF OUT, FOR THAT YOU DONT NEED CLEAR COZ IT DOES THE SAME EFFECT AFTER ITS POLISHED OUT.
