Hi, Noticed the Sticky regarding prep for painting plastic bodies.

OP said he may add one for metal bodies but I didn't see it.

My question is, does a metal body need AP? Is it just plastic that requires it?

Also regarding flaking from the previous job (Not me) can I buy a gel stripper to remove the old paint, instead of sanding? (Id prefer a sandblaster...)

I would suspect I do not need AP for Metal but I should buy a good quality primer or metal. Having also read a related thread, I can go to an auto body shop and by aerosol cans with a one stage all in one primer/paint/clear?

Any input would be appreciated.

thanks,

Alex
