Or any other painter for that matter.. i have a 04 chevy impala that is metallic silver and the roof looks hazy and the clear coat is peeling also the side of the car looks like spider webs is this fixable? can i just re clear it or does it have to be repainted? any help will be greatly appriciated

Ur gonna have to cut all of that bad clear off and at least seal and paint it. I would epoxy prime then block it and paint as normal

k good deal on the roof its still a dull silver like if i rub it the clear comes off like dust could i sand the clear off and save the silver? then re clear it? any websites or books that i could possible look at to help me out?

Not gonna be able to save that silver man at the very least all that clear needs to come off and a 2k or epoxy sealer sprayed then base and clear it

i just have one question since this guy is done with the thread.
can epoxy sealer be sprayed over any surface such as rattle can primer, old paint, bare metal?
KEEF   +1y
Old prepped paint or bare metal nothing needs to be sprayed over rattle can paint or primer, it must be completely removed

Rattle can pri er should be completely removed before any real paint goes on....It is designed to be sprayed over properly prepped bare metal and it can be sprayed over old paint, but its nice to start with a bare metal substrate if at all possible.

thanks guys, i have a hint of suspicion that my c-10 may have been rattle canned with black primer(DAMN IT!). thanks for the input.
