PREPARATION:
===================================================================================================================
Surface should be cleaned of all grease, oil, dirt, rust, etc before applying Vintage Hot Rod Color. If necessary clean surface with an engine cleaner to remove heavy deposits of grease and oil. Wash area with soap and warm water. Thoroughly clean area with –CP-90 or CP-905 Waterborne Cleaner. CP-905 Waterborne Cleaner must be used where VOC restrictions apply.
Cold Rolled Steel, Galvanized Steel & Galvaneal:
Sand area with 180-220 grit sandpaper. Clean again with CP-90 or CP-905.
Aluminum: Do not use coarse grit sandpaper.
Scuff surface with a red scuff pad or equivalent. Clean again with CP-90 or CP-905.
Apply Pre-treatment primer and allow to cure. Apply primer surfacer and allow to cure. CP-6000 can be applied direct to metal eliminating the pre-treatment step. Sand primer surfacer with 180-220 grit sandpaper. If applying a sealer over the primer surfacer, finish sand with 320-400 grit sandpaper. If applying CP Hot Rod Color directly over the primer surfacer, finish sand with 400-500 grit sandpaper. CP Hot Rod Color can also be applied directly over a pre-treatment primer (Self-Etch primer and Epoxy Primer). ===================================================================================================================
