I've been sanding down the poor quality respray that is chipping off wholesale and getting ready to do a repaint on my TR7. The PO sprayed a very thick coat on with no primer over the original coat and it hasn't held up well to say the least.
In some places it has crazed quite a bit, and as I'm sanding it down it is much better and not sloughing off, but I don't know how far down I should go. I don't want to go down to bare metal if I don't need to, but is there a good paint system that will help "seal" the remaining paint and ensure a good bond that will last. I want to be sure that the crazing does not come back in the future.
I'm planning on keeping the same exterior color (white), and will not be doing the engine bay or trunk area as they are still in quite good shape (the original paint seems to have held up well in these areas).
Any advice is welcomed!!!
