  1. Hello everyone. Lurker here needing some insight. I'm planning to repaint my Miata. Iv never painted before but i have been doing a lot of searching and I'm still kind of confused about a couple things. I'm hoping you guys can clear a few things up for me.

     

    My car is currently white, I want to go black. The body is pretty straight. It do have a few dings and scratches. A tiny amount of bondo and putty will clear all that up. I know I need to sand down my clear coat. I've read online people using everything from 300grit to 800. what grit should i use? Should i wet sand? Do I just sand the clear off and lay down new paint? Should i wet sand the new paint before laying down the clear? After fixing the dents I know I have to feather and lay down primer. Can I use spray can primer? Other then self etching should I look for anything else?

     

    I apologize for all the questions, and TIA.

  2. Hello everyone. I'm hasuna i live in northwest Columbus and work in Lancaster. I currently own a couple of crappy daily drivers. I just recently picked up a miata with a good bit of suspension work already done. Not exactly my taste, but it is growing on me. I plan on a swapping the miata onto a ls1, depending on how a few things work out with our family business. If all else fails it'll probably get turboed until i blow the motor.
