BTW: im going from red to black along wiht the rest of the car.

 

Some interesting (although not 2nd gen specific) info here.

The link in post #8 looks promising.

 

great stuff!
but i said it wrong like i always do....
painting the floor (over the sound dampning crap) and door seals.....

sorry!

 

Por-15!

 

no clear coat, any high traffic areas or minor scratches will promote it to lose adhesion and flake off, just normal auto paint and shoot.

in fact i hate clearcoating alltogether, it eventually flakes where you can just cut a single or 2 stage paint. only cars that have clearcoat that i have seen last 20+ years or even over 5 for that matter is cars that never see anything other than a garage. granted this is interior here but the door sills are not exempt from humidity and weather and are the most susceptible areas to get nicks in the paint.

 

thanks alot.
so just a good sanding (400 grit) and primer then shoot away???

 

so by normal auto paint you mean laquer? I'd say urethane paints are more popular, and require a clearcoat. Laquer would be better for interior panels though because it doesn't chip as easily. Just a clarification
