      Hi Bray, my advice is (If your old fairings are still good) you should always refurb them rather than buying fresh after market fairings. In my experience they are often a lot thinner and not as good fitting as the originals. Also you can do a perfectly good respray with good quality two pack spray cans, (you don’t need spray guns and a compressor unless you are running your own respray business).

    Hi, a question for you…
    I ordered armour bodies track fairings and they come primer grey from revzilla. Do I need to wet sand with 600 or dry sand to scuff it up? Clean with alcohol after?
    Then I can spray a base coat? I was thinking something like mtn94 cans, and I purchased 2x cans high gloss 2k primer with the hardener (red pop caps) for the clear coat.

    • @MIKESBUILDZ
      @MIKESBUILDZ  2 місяці тому

      Hey. It’s probably best to wet sand with 600 and spray adhesion promoter, a primer sealer, then base and clear. Yeah the 2k clear is the way to go, cans or gun.

  • @ucipresentation
    @ucipresentation 15 днів тому +1

    Do you use wet sandpaper after the base coat and then the top coat or no sanding after the top coat?

    • @MIKESBUILDZ
      @MIKESBUILDZ  12 днів тому

      You can wet sand after base coat but I don’t recommend. Wet sand after primer and you should be good for base and clear coat.

  • @randomweeb5843
    @randomweeb5843 3 місяці тому +1

    So for some clarification on the primer
    Which do you use first, the Standard Hardener or the High Build Primer? Is there any specific order for it to be done?

    • @MIKESBUILDZ
      @MIKESBUILDZ  3 місяці тому +2

      You should only use high build primer if some body works been done and you intend to sand after applying primer. If there’s no damage, you can thin out the primer to act as a primer surfacer.

  • @hardtorn
    @hardtorn 5 місяців тому +1

    So I need some clarification. Did you say if the aftermarket faring is unpainted and undamaged (plain plastic) you don’t need to prime it at all?
    Just sand the raw plastic and paint it? That doesn’t seem accurate. If plastic parts have no paint or primer.. I don’t feel the paint on its own will stick to the plastic parts. Seems like unfinished plastic would need a base of primer with adhesion promoter to get the paint coast to stick.

    • @MIKESBUILDZ
      @MIKESBUILDZ  5 місяців тому

      Hey, all or most plastic comes primered. I haven’t seen a raw plastic panel in a long time. If the part has no damage and has paint or primer on it, all you do is sand with 600 or red scotch brite and spray adhesion promoter and base coat or primer sealer (if required to make blending the color easier). Now if it is raw plastic, wash the part thoroughly to ensure there’s no release agent from the moulding process on the part, sand with 320, spray adhesion promoter and spray a good quality 2k primer, sand again then base and clear coat. I hope this helps. Let me know if you require additional help.

      Thanks for the quick reply. I will check the farings again and see what I find. They look to be ones bought cheap off eBay and never painted. They were in the bike when I bought it. They are shiny white on the outside and dull white in the inner side. We plan to paint them.
      I just don’t want to have issue with the paint flaking off later or cracking easily because these seem pretty flexible.
      We plan to use adhesion promoter. And good primer & paint. Maybe even 2 part primer and 2 part paint.

    • @MIKESBUILDZ
      @MIKESBUILDZ  5 місяців тому

      @hardtorn you’re welcome. if you’re not certain if it’s primer or raw plastic I would just spray primer, not worth the risk. Be sure to use good quality 2k or epoxy primer. Sanding as needed will improve the finished result. Depending on the colour and type of paint (plain, metallics, pearl etc), I’d personally use solvent instead of waterborne paint. 2k clear coat is must to ensure a nice durable finish.

    You apply the adhesion promoter before the base coat ?

    • @MIKESBUILDZ
      @MIKESBUILDZ  5 місяців тому +1

      Best to apply before primer, no need to apply before base coat. If you’re just spraying base coat and no primer, then a light coat of adhesion promoter on a prepped surface is a good idea.

(Which for some reaaon seen to be the WORST I have ever come across. It's like they were super glued on!) should I use a more corse grit first, then work to 600, or just use a course grit then primer it to cover some of scratches from removing the glue?

      @kforeal6809 there are solvents you can use to remove the residue. Like goo gone, lacquer thinner r acetone. However you should be careful using those. Sanding also works but you’ll gum up the sand paper quickly.
