    Im planning on painting it tomorrow should i use some sort of primer or could i sand it smooth and paint straight over the current paint?

    Give it a good sand, prime it up, wet or dry rub it, up to you tho.
    Then paint her up

    thanks for the help.

    progress so far



    i ran out of paint i think it still needs another coat so i will get more tomorrow morning then I'll clear coat it.
    i got a spray can mixed from autobarn and it only did 2 light coats of the wing, i was expecting it to go a lot further.

    There good cans the auto 1 ones but i have heard they hav 2k in a can and it is suposed to give a good shine. All ways use sca degreaser before you paint and give it light coats of paint.
