Well I am working on restoring a 1970 Moto Ski Capri snowmobile. I have a good hood for it, but the paint is faded from being outside for years. I have never painted fibreglass before and was wondering if anybody who has done it could help me out with a few questions.
1) Can I use the same paint for the fibreglass hood as I would use to paint the steel tunnel? I have heard people say you can, just mix more hardener with the paint, is that true?
2) Do I need to use a primer? The hood still has good paint coverage, it is just faded. If I sand that to rough it up good will that serve as a good base?
3) To get the best paint finish when do I want to wet sand? After I clear coat the paint or before?
Thanks for any help. :thumbsup:
