Default Re: Paint Questions

The original interior paint was acrylic lacquer. You can get the correct colors premixed in spray cans at any Mustang Supply store. It is a dull finish and is put on in thin coats so it does not fill in the grain in the metal textured doors. You should remove the old paint first on the doors, lacquer thinner on a rag works well, but steel wool works better. Be sure to wear gloves and if the car has nice paint be sure to cover well so that lacquer thinner does not drip on your paint, it will take it off too. When you get done, get a clean rag and wipe down with wax and grease remover (or enamel reducer) and let dry, then you are ready to paint. Keep the paint flowing, dont stay in one spot. I paint from one end to the other in a staight line and overlap. Start the spray off the car so you dont get the round wet spots. Good Luck!
