hello, i have a black t2 and the hood is faded all over. i would like to know what is involved when repainting a hood. basically a step by step process. (what grit sand paper to use?, how to stip paint if needed?, what kind of paint?, etc.) as far as paint goes can i use those 5 oz. touch-up spray cans they sell at automotive stores? or should i just take it to a shop and let them worry about it? sorry for being a noob.

thanks,
melvin

 

well, you need:
the hood
paint
clear

and time.....

i dont know! just let a shop paint it because they have to blend the fenders with clear so you dont notice its been painted.... also, they have to match the color..

 

oh yea dont forget you need a carbon fiber spray booth

look on my website... im re-painting my whole car and taking pics of what the professional shop does each day... look at it and you can understand what they do...
