OK. So I the bottom of my hood has always bugged me because it was not painted all the way from Ford.
I saw the thread where 5spd07gt did his hood and figured I would give it a shot.
I purchased my supplies from Automotive Touchup.
Automotivetouchup.com Touch Up Paint, Aerosol Spray Paint and Paint Touch Up Accessories
Here's what I bought:
12oz Aresol of "Torch Red" paint code Ford D3 (Colorado Red. Same thing as Torch Red)
12oz Aresol of High Gloss Clear Coat
2oz Spray Bottle of Prep Solvent Wax and Grease Remover
1 3M Tack Cloth
Total Cost: $39.65
I peeled the stickers with the build dates off and sanded the area down. (Sorry Jeff )
Then I taped off the area to be painted. I didn't want to do the whole underside, just the area taped off.
I layed down a very light coat of Base Color.
Second coat of Base Color.
And after the 4th and final coat of Base Color.
It is drying now and I am getting ready to shoot the clear in a few minutes. I will update the thread as I progress.
