[QUOTE="mafioso, post: 472992, member: 572"] The original undercoat might have been Nextel, which can be dissolved with blou trein (methylated spirit), a tip I got from Steerpike. I resprayed my Micro MR-711 dd turntable with auto basecoat/clearcoat. There's some before and after pics in my gallery at vinyl engine. The undercoat I used was black etch primer formulated for aluminium - Duram NS5 Metcote Etch Primer. This stuff is a total bastid to clean out from sprayguns as I found out and spray equipment must be taken apart and cleaned directly after use. The Brasso and toothpaste stuff is a bit mickey mouse when it comes to removing casting imperfections in aluminium. skollie [/QUOTE]
