Hi,
If I do the process of:
- Stripping clearcoat using aircraft stripper
- Sanding using 180 grit
- Priming 2-5 coats
- Painting 2-5 coats

My question is, how long would I wait between the coats of the primer. And, after the last coat of primer has fully been applied, how long should I wait before applying the paint.

And finally, after the last coat of paint is applied, how long should the car be left to dry? I dunno if I can handle more then a week without driving the car.

Thanks!
Bye!
