I know that there are a lot of books on the market on painting, but most of them are 10+ years old and paint technology has changed a lot over the years, specifically in that we now have adhesion promotors, flex agents, etc..... Are there any good books out there? I want to learn how to paint. It's not that I don't know how (ie. I do a bit of airbrushing), but it's mostly that I want to know what primers are best to use on different materials, what additives should be used when, different retarders, etc. I'm hoping to paint my motorcycle myself (good starter project), which will be either all fiberglass or a combination of plastic and fiberglass parts. I'll most likely just buy the materials premixed from my local supplier but would like to know what I need going in.
