Yeah...those are some good tips. I think I can do a decent paint job after my plastidip adventures...kinda got my mind hand coordination sorted. But after several warnings from people lol..I'll probably get it professionally done.

Advice for you, I can tell you that you will need adhesive promoter before you lay down your primer. Primer directly sprayed on urethane will not stick. In my opinion frp or fiberglass is much easier to paint for a DIY, but it doesn't mean that it can't be done with urethane. Also remember to use 2k clear (2 part paint)!

I get my products from automotivetouchup.com, their paint match has been great for my projects, good luck!
