962Porsche - Thanks for your wisdom and tips and for being there on time. The front bumper went much better. Good coverage on the base, and no runs on the clear coat. I was more patient between coats.

Truth be told, I haven't sprayed in 28 years. Did about 10 cars in my garage back in the late 70's and early 80's when single stage was the approach. My dad and I turned a few muscle cars around.

This weekend's project was the bumpers on my wife's 2002 Kia Sedona minivan. I wanted to practice on something I didn't care about before I started on my 1980 SC. In the near future I'll paint my car. It's black, so the body prep will be the "patient" part. Black isn't kind to amateurs. But at least it isn't metal flake.

This forum has a wealth of experience and we are all grateful for the guidance. This weekend was a fun project and a learning experience. Thanks for helping out.
