egghead Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 I have a PO who decided to primer areas on the MJ that are not needed. I'm wanting to try and remove it. Gas, laquour thinner, paint thinner? Power washer? What are your tricks to removing primer without harming the paint?
egghead Posted June 13, 2015 Author Posted June 13, 2015 Haha I knew that's the answer I was going to get, I just didn't know if anyone had any other ideas.
Minuit Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 I've had the occasional success with detailing clay taking spray paint off of clear coat. Depending on how the primer was applied this may or may not work (better chance if the primer was just sprayed over the truck's paint), but it's another option you might try. It's very gentle and won't hurt the paint at all.
Megadan Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Clay bar does work well for light misty overspray. Heavier coats I would definitely try thinners first. Last resort would be dish soap, water, and wet sanding. It would really depend on where and how heavy that primer is.
egghead Posted June 13, 2015 Author Posted June 13, 2015 It's heavy in areas, I used gas on most of it. He used some cheap primer and some John Wayne primer. You can guess which one is tougher. Hah, I'm going to get some laquour thinner and try it. Thanks for the imput!
