[QUOTE="alternativeroute, post: 472570, member: 1115"] I have this Technics chassis that I want to respray. The old paintwork was corroded and peeling. I have stripped it and did a coat of paint stripper. I have also wet sanded it to smooth the surface. I am left with this: [url=https://flic.kr/p/oMpSgW][IMG]https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3896/14953747916_a8c39ab2d6.jpg[/IMG][/url] [url=https://flic.kr/p/oMpSgW]Technics chassis[/url] by [url=https://www.flickr.com/people/16181679@N00/]alternativeroute[/url], on Flickr The black parts are where the aluminium was corroded. You can also see a few spots of the original primer. The centre bit is the original paintwork... Questions: [list] [*]Before I add a top-coat. What sort of basecoat would you suggest? [*]Are the black corroded bits going to be a problem? They are smooth to the touch now but obviously discoloured.... [/list] [/QUOTE]
