I have done a few searches on the forum regarding paint prep, but so many of the threads deviate away from the original question.
I need to prep the airplane for paint (exterior).
I am going to use a water based base coat and a final polyurethane topcoat.
1st question:
1.) how do I clean and prep the wings, fuse, emp. for paint
2.) scotchbrite or sand paper (wet/dry)
3.) what sovents and or degreaser, detergent?
My idea was to use tide or some other detergent first and just wash the heck out of it and rinse with water, dry, then wipe with MEK. Is this good or no good?
Thanks in advance for any help.
