It has begun.

ok I've started the 350Z. I've been sanding the body to remove mold lines. And am about to primer the body, after I give it a wash.





ok some questions though.

after primering, I should sand the primer using 800 or 1200 sandpaper?

Once I spray the actual color, do I need to sand that before O apply the clearcoat?

then once the clear is on should I sand that and do another coat?

then what to I use to polish it so it gets the bling-bling?

and should I be using Acrylic or Enamel paint.

If your primer is really smooth use 1200, if there is some orange peel or roughness use 800. If you spray TS 17 do not sand it, it is a metallic paint and it will not look even if you sand in one spot more than the other. Let silver dry for two weeks then clear it wih TS 13, polish it with Tamiya Compound for bling-bling shine!
