Re: best steps for three foot deep paint job

1.Clearcoating a single stage defeats the purpose. Just do a basecoat/clearcoat job.
2.Adding clear to the color or visaversa doesn't make sense.Also,good luck trying to match it later - especially red.

You can spray your basecoat/clearcoat paint job.Do a minimum of four coats of clear. Let the truck sit for seven days - Wet sand with 600 or 800 grit wet and dry paper (let sandpaper sit in bucket of soapy water overnight before using).Prep the truck and spray at least three more coats of clear. Color sand one more time with 1600 grit and buff. If you haven't used a buffer before get with someone that has experience.I hope this helps.
