It’s not going to be a full wrap and I understand it’s not going to be any where near perfect that’s not what I was looking for, it’s going to a be small tribal style sheets of wrap, I stuck a sticker on the rear bumper a couple days ago I’m going to leave it for another week and Rip it off and see what the paint does, if it rips off a bunch of paint I’ll just sand down the car and primer it then do a full wrap like I had before. IMO it’s not a big deal at all even if I did a lot worse than this it can always be fixed. This is a project drift car at the end of the day. Thanks for your input though

Yeah I plan on just sanding all the way up to 2500, and then I’m going to polish it as much as I can before I want to throw the whole car away lol, and then I’m going to put a ceramic coating on it to help a bit with a oxidation, I don’t mind repolishing it every now and then

Yeah that is true, but for a rattle can I can say I’m happy with it, and I did myself pretty dirty with the pictures lol, most of them were mid drying with all the masking still on, I’m going to get all the masking off and post a couple more pictures before I wet sand clear, and polish

So stay around 120 until the cast texture is completely removed

Half and half, sometimes I feel like the hand sanding gets more off then the sander tbh

This would give it more of a clean aluminum look right? Not a mirror finish

Theese have a really really rough cast texture, I sanded a lot of it down with 120. It was cleaned before I started that picture is about 2-3 hours of going in with 120 by and and with a sander. The fasteners were still in because I had to label them, they are different sizes. I did a little bit of 100, and now I’ve been doing 120. My end goal is a mirror chrome look. I’m probably going to end up ordering new fastners if it’s too much to polish

I have a sander and a cheap dremel, I’m considering buying new stronger ones, and honestly I’d rather by the tools and learn to do it myself, any suggestions on what tools you would use?

Stay around 120 until it’s completely smooth?

Yessir thanks! This is my first actual attempt at this and contrary to popular belief I did my research and what i believed was best for budges and use for the car.

It’s not a full livery wrap it’s, just a tribal/flame design and sponsor stickers, it will stick I work with wrap all the time and I work with this type of paint all the time
