hey guys i got a 92 saxony biue teg and just like almost all old integras the roof started fading…BAD…now less then ahlf of it has pain and clearcoat on it the rest is just bare. im in college and i dont have to coin to spend to paint the whole car so how much do u think it would be to just get the roof painted to last for at least 2 years… i was thinking about removing the remaning paint myself and then just bringing it to a shop and tell them to spray it. how could i go to remove the paint? thanks
sand it with 400grit till the clear is gone and the paint is smooth, don’t bother sanding all the paint off.
then u dont need primer right? just 3 coats for paint and then 3 of clearcoat?
if you sand it you won’t save too much money…maybe $50? + you will be spending money by buying sand paper & a sanding block…i’m guessing just for your roof to be painted should be around $300-$400…& that’s just the roof, no blending of the columns or anything…& that’s at a rate of $46/hr…
i guess if it’s a learning experience…just don’t get an electric sander…manual(by hand) you will see better results
