Automotive Touch Up Paint from PaintScratch - Order Pro Grade Paint - PaintScratch.com ( photo 1 )

! - Scuffed up the pieces with 400 wet or dry.
2 - wiped everything down with wax & grease remover.
3- Wiped it all down again with a tack rag.
4 - Sprayed the Adhesion promoter - 1 light coat flash time 5 min., 1 wet coat flash time 10 to 15 min. no longer than 30 min.
5_ Sprayed the primer - 1 light coat & 2 wet coats, flash time between coats 5 min. ( photo 3 )

Going to let the primer dry & I don't know if I will get to spraying the basecoat & clearcoat this weekend but Monday for sure.
