Hi guys,
I am moving slowly on all my project but I am moving surely!!
So I have a couple of question:
1. The car which I am going to respray is a metallic paint. Is there anything I should now about the mettallic paint, different paint technique ? (I never re-spray so it is time).
2. I have see that there is a clear coat, which is apply on mettallic paint. I suppose it is to increase the glossy finish?
Should I compound before or after the lacquer/clear coat or after?
3. For the preparation, I was thinking about using a da sander to be a bit quicker on the sanding. I have another couple of car waiting so the investment will pay in time.
I have one already but I am afraid my compressor is not strong enough so I am thinking about get a electric one.

What do you think ? Has anyone use them before?
4. I am looking for a mask for the use of celly, do u know if those are good? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Gerson-2K-Disposable-Paint-Spray-Respirator-Face-Mask-/350284765348?pt=UK_Body_Shop_Supplies_Paint&hash=item518e9958a4#ht_500wt_922
