Hi,
I am painting the hood panels on a 7040 allis, They were very rough and I had to do some patch panels and welding. I completely stripped it down to bare metal and removed all rust. Used agco primer and put 2 coats of Agco Allis chalmers orange.. but my paint gun had issues and I needed one more coat to get complete coverage.
I want to get a hvlp and put one more coat but need to wait 36 hours now since I missed the 30 minute window.. Will I have to scuff up the paint again to get good adhesion?
I know the agco paint is just alkyd enamel and will fade quickly,, will waxing help? I am fairly new to painting anything that needs a nice finish so wanted easy to use paint to learn with.
Also, just wondering what paint would be better if I wanted a longer lasting finish? And Will I be able to buy it here in ontario? or would I need to be a licensed auto body shop?
Thanks
