wet sanding with pinstripe ???

i'm wanting to re-clear a mailbox i did in school, but i've laid down a pinstripe on part of it. What can i use to scuff it enough for clear in that area, but not screw up the stripes? or will i pretty much need to go back over it?

A lot of pinstripe? If not I would use PrepNBlend/DX100 and a gray scotchbrite. You might be able to get away with white scotchbrite..But I never really liked them much.

Ive had blend panels with pinstripe, but not a lot. And this is the route I took.

its a good bit of it

run over it with a grey scuff pad and clear it thats how i do all the gms with factory painted pinstripes

just seems like it would pull the stripe off, but, phuck it, its not like i can't redo it some if it does, lol

Just dont go crazy with it and do it like a blend panel. Thats what the PrepNBlend/Final Scuff is for. Either way you have to watch out for sand scratches. But the stuff definitely helps

Now that I have thought about it. I dont even remember if DX100 was the name of the PrepNBlend that PPG made. Who knows I havent used the stuff in a year.

is the stripes on top of the clear? what kind of paint did u use, and if its oil based like 1-shot did u neutralize the paint, if not, when u go to clear it, the painted stripes will react w/ the clear and lift.

wash it w/ dish soap and a grey scuff pad. the blend prep will take that stripe off if you press down hard enough. and what mikey said to lol.

ive cleared over oneshot that wasnt catalyzed and never had a problem with it..done it when its fresh and when its set for a day or so...u shouldnt have to worry about that..just scuff it up with a gray pad like these guys said..just dont get too carried away..its not like its gonna peel off if you dont get it perfectly scuffed..cuz its just a mailbox...and wont see the abuse that a car does

when using the 1shot use reducer instead of mineral spirits and ull never have a problem w/ it reactin to clear
