question on painting

[z400boy5]

I am looking to buy a new body. My colors are going to be pearl white and orange. I am going to use paint mask for orange graphics. What is the process of painting this. This will be my ver first body to paint. Do I lay down the mask and then paint the pearl white body and then paint the graphics or elsewise? The body is a parma blazer body.

thanks all help is wanted

Whenever possible you should paint the darker colors first then the lighter colors.

I would do this: shoot the orange, shoot the pearl white, back the whole thing with regular white. Back it with the regular white because the pearl white might remain transparent otherwise, and the white will make the orange "pop", be brighter.

Hope this helps! :teacher:

So you are saying lay the paint mask down. Then shoot the orange graphics. Then do I peel the mask off or leave it on when shooting the pearl white

I would mask off where I want my white leaving the orange areas exposed. You would spray the orange and then remove the mask to spray the rest pearl white. The back it with white.

Yep, like Farwar said.
