right,first time on here and i was wonderin if someone could help me out possibly.

i recently bought a 2i tailgate + spoiler off Bridger, but the thing is, it's white and my car is red, so obviously has to be sprayed. I was lookin at doin this myself but am not quite sure where to start let alone finish

could someone outline the procedure for me?

[Robin]

U wanna start off by rubing it right down with some wet n dry, then give it a few coats of grey laquier rub that down till a smooth coat, get your self a compresser, paint and some laquier, paint it about 4-5 coats same with laquier, allow to dry then rub it down with some fine wet n dry, use some rubbing compound aswell then polish it right up. Done

when u said 'get your self a compresser', what does that mean?

sorry to sound stupid.

[Robin]

A compreser is a big machine used to create air pressuire. this is attached to the paint gun. it then pushes the paint out through the nossel and u get paint spray

cheers for that mate

grey lacquer?

dont u mean primer?
an it'd be better if u took it to a bodyshop if u dont have the right conditions to do it in.plus if u muck it up uve wasted all ure time an money but it is cheaper.
BUT....if u take it to a bodyshop it'll be laodsa dearer but prolly a better finish an if they muck it up then thats they're problem!

[Robin]

Yes your right i ment grey primer not grey laquirer.

Be serious kids unless you really know what you're doing this is going to look poooo doing it yourself. Hand it over, pay the £100 and walk away happy.
