How To PROPERLY Spray Paint! - WRX STi Ft Workshop Pure Sound - Well this week I'm going to be showing you my process for properly painting car parts and achieving a professional finish as well as providing a nice ASMR experience with the pure workshop sounds. What gives you the right to say that I hear you say? Well I am a professionally trained painter that's been in the game 20 years and have painted just about every make of car and bike out there so I'd say that makes me pretty qualified lol. So anyway the parts in for painting are all Genuine Subaru Impreza WRX STi body panels that will all be fitted to my car in the near future but first they need a fresh coat of spray paint. First up, remove all the stickers and decals from the panels along with any adhesive and tar spots that get left behind, I usually deal with these with a wipe down with panel wipe or thinners if its really stubborn glue. After that the parts and all ready for a good sanding now what grade you use depends on your initial paint layer and since mine is going to be a black primer I will be using a mix of 240 and 320 grit to prep the full panels and 320 working up to 1200 on the outer blend edge of the bumper as i will be blending the repair into the surrounding rather than wasting spray paint painting the full panel when it doesn't need it. So once sanded and cleaned again the parts are primed with a black primer, there is a good reason for this and if you know why leave me a comment below and I'll be sure to let you know if you're correct. When the parts have had 3 coats and an appropriate drying time the parts are sanded once again to give them a totally flat finish with no defects so the basecoat of paint lays down beautifully. The basecoat spray paint is 02C world rally blue from Subaru and is what their most iconic rally winning cars are painted in except for the early cars they were painted the darker 555 blue but lets not get into that, 3 coats of this were applied to all the parts except the bumper which was given 3 coats plus an additional 4th blend coat to make the repair area invisible. Then it was simply a case of applying 3 good coats of nice UV stable clear coat to protect the finish for many years to come and after a little assembly work we are all done and dusted. so I hope you've enjoyed this little video showing how I PROPERLY Spray Paint car parts and will leave a comment, hit that like and subscribe button and tell all your friends about my channel.
