Hi all
Long overdue but we are wanting to embark on a topside repaint of our IG32. Had been done (badly) by previous owner but we lived with it, however can no longer ignore the sate of the paintwork.
I am going to have to do this myself and while it is too late in the summer here in Sydney to do the topcoats I am looking for video's, documents, web sites, anything to give me advice on the preparation. Obvioulsy rub back, but there are some chips and areas where there is a network of fine cracks and other issues.
So wondering about do I fill etc or do I have to take it al the way back? If filling with what? Can i do undercoat/primer in cooler weather.
Want to take my time and get this right (unusual for me!)
Anyone have any links, books etc?
