I agree that a search in the right section would have been good. Assuming your talking about the 93 interior finish...alot of info. Your thread will probably get moved soon but here's a start: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...highlight=sand

As soon as I get back home I will finish mine, but hre is the process I used that seem to be the best for me since I done this numerous times.

I use some scotch pads for automotive use to smooth down the surface that I'm paiting. To clean the panels, I either use rubbing alcohol or invisible glass cleaner. I apply very thin coats of Duplicolor sandable primer in black til I have even coats. It will look rough but use the scotch pad to smooth it out but don't put a whole lot of presure on it since it sands easily. This is where I'm at right now. When I get home all I have to do is put a few coats of Duplicolor interior vinyl spray color to finish it off. I like this stuff because I can use Armorall to clean like it was the OEM coating. Look in my sig for process pics
