    prep work cleaned it wwith soap and water real good, than sand it with 400 grit sand paper used my mini d.a. for ruff spots scratchs etc. then cleaned again with a solvent for grease grim whatever for painting 3 coats for paint,
    2 coats for clear coat. took me about 5 hours, and then used heat gun to dry.
