Scale 35% Krill Extra 330SC....CUSTOM-ARF!!!

Pistolera

HEY!..GET OUTTA MY TREE!
@Jetpainter ......Question for the painting pro....Final (hopefully) wet sanding of the primer (Nason 2K) on my Krill. Every now and then there will be a very slight sand-thru of the primer, to either the underlying white gelcoat or glass. All still very smooth. In the pic I've highlighted a couple of such areas. These happen on or near edges.

Should I touch up the primer on these spots or just go with the color? Using Chromabase colors.

Thanks for the guidance!!!!

Small cut throughs are usually not a problem and don't require repriming. Just make sure the color stays uniform over them so it all looks covered. You can put a coat of base on everything then hit the cut throughs separately so they're covered then coat the whole thing as needed.
