photo attempt No 2-Engine compartment
I refinish small areas at a time.
I use painters masking tape and newspaper
to cover large areas. Tinfoil and painters tape for
small items- Then I cover the entire car in sheets
and blankets. Some difficult areas I shield with hand held pieces of cardboard while I spray around them.

Cool! It worked this time.
I use Dupli-Color products and FW1 as a final polish.
Preparation is the key. I work in small areas and
remove engine bay hardware like radiator supports,
etc. whenever possible. I clean everything with xylene.
Small, removeable pieces I cook in the oven with this plastic powder applied with electric spray gun.
The Duplicolor is quite good at filling in small
scratches of the existing paint that I do not always
need to remove to bare metal.
hope this helps ya out.
