My intention is next summer i will rub down these areas and repaint by hand. i can only assume i either (or both) hadn't applied enough acid etch or the surface had become contaminated & subsequently i hadn't cleaned is enough. Since painting there has been a few areas where the paint has separated from the alu.
The doors required repairs prior which left large parts need to striped to the bare metal. The Upol tintable has maintained its colour strength.ĭon't hand brush 2 pac primer.far to thick, resulting in needless hours of sanding. Upol spray's ridiculously easily, considering I've never sprayed anything before. upol raptor sprayed on with 20% thinners, with black for the roof and satin grey for everything else Generally everything was rubbed down and bare alu was hand painted with acid etch.ĥ. I thought i would add a status update regarding the 'Upol Raptor' paint given its been on the truck for 2 years.ĭue to limited space, the good wifey let me take over the garden/ yard to paint the following under a gazebo!ġ.
