Ok so on Friday I painted some parts for one of my projects. I sprayed a tack coat and then a wet coat but now think I may have went a little to light on the wet coat so I would like to lay down another good coat on the parts. Now my question is, since the paint has been drying for 3 days do I need to wet sand or scotch brite the paint thats on there or can I just wipe it down good and spray it again?

I would give it a quick Wet Sand with #320 :thumbsup: :trink:

320 scratches will through base coat. You just need to scuff it up

What kind of paint is it ? Does it have a hardener?

 

[chllngr528]

sorry for the late reply. Its case factory paint with hardener

Scuff the paint with a red scufff pad. Do not go crazy with it. Blow it off and wipe down the parts with precleaner wipes and then a tack cloth.

Scuff the paint with a red scufff pad.

I've been using the green, is red finer or coarser?

There are two different red scuff pads by 3M. I use both of those and the grey one. I will get the specs tomorrow on the box and pass them along here. The red I use a lot though seems to be about the same as the "green" off the shelf stuff.

As long as they're close. I figure you know a lot more about this than I so as long as it's about the same that's good enough. :thumbsup:

What works good for me is I scuff it up enough to take the shine off the new paint and that seems to do the trick. Just be sure to let the paint dry enough before sanding or spraying over it. Patience is the key for painting at least for me. :thumbsup:
