Anyone knows where to get Self-etching primer is spray can form locally?

So far. I think matt black/green is the easiest way to DIY paint work.

DIY painting is actually very very very very very very super duper huper easy for anyone.. even kids can do it... it doesnt need any skills or talents.. what you actually need is time and patient to do it.. my kind of painting requires alot of time, probably a week to do it.. but its a sure full gloss.. can say better than some paint shop.. these are some of my artwork..

for the info, this a paint done on my frame, it takes me 3 days of lazy work and anyhow spray.. some would say diy spray will crack, but my paint has lasted for 4 years or more with full gloss... the only materials you need, is SPRAYCAN.. 5 bucks only.. sandpaper and a few cloths and a bottle one 100 plus

 

now im looking for paint that is fuel resistant.. 2k paint requires airbrush to operate.. if anybody got any paint brand that i can find in the market that is fuel resistant do pm me.. preferably spray cans.. thanks...

You need both coarse and fine.

The coarse ones to make the uneven surface even and take out previous paint.

Then use finer ones to smooth out the surface.

The higher the grit number, the finer the sand paper.

wow bro the can lacquer really can tahan until 4 years?

 

i always see crack after some time.

and if get greedy with the colour paint, the inner layer might not dry, and in end will **** up all the efforts.

 

anwyays my mech in jb kind enough to let me use his tools..

and i found out using the compressor gun with 2k paint is really much easier than using canspray.. hee

[yinghai]

Yeap.. As long as it doesnt touch petrol, it will be as glossy as ever. The reason why paint crack is becos of thick layer of paint applied..
