Stew F Posted 28June, 2015 Report Share Posted 28June, 2015 WARNING.. Not Porsche related.I'm in the middle of doing a paint repair on my Mitsubishi Triton. I needed to respray the sill panel near the driver's door where the paint had rubbed through from dragging legs and shoes across it while getting in & out. I've done the prep, primer & top coat. I had a colour match spray can done at the local Autobarns - nice match, second time around . How long should I wait beforefinal sanding the top coatapplying the first clear coathow long between clear coats? The paint guy told me to do 1 light clear coat followed by a final wet coat with no sanding afterwards.So far I've done a smashing job.Thanks.

Harvs11 Posted 28June, 2015 Report Share Posted 28June, 2015 Answers to Q1,2,&3 should be on the can. If you're already happy with the result, forget about sanding. Leaving slight orange peel finish might be the best option. That way it will match the rest of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew F Posted 28June, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 28June, 2015 Thanks Harvs. Unfortunately there's a label stuck over the original label which I could just see through, but not make out the writing below. I googled the paint manufacturer, with success. Apply the 1st clear coat after basecoat 1 hour flash time, followed by 2nd clear coat after 5 minutes. Cheers.
