Hello everyone,
My current project is a jimmiroquai FO snowtrooper kit that will require the armor to be painted.
Other builds have mentioned wet sanding for primer and the paint coats. What technique is used for wet sanding in the sense do you lightly sand or really lay into it? Also does the direction of the sanding strokes matter?
Currently the armor has been sprayed with gray primer to find pin holes and bubbles that were filled with putty. The parts have been wet sanded with 400 grit sandpaper with the result being a lot of the primer is gone. Next will be multiple coats of white primer, sanding, then the final paint.
Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
