SUPRA4EVA Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Do OEM panels come pre coated or are they bare metal? Never bought new panels but they must come pre coated so you can at least store them? And do they basically need sanded down to bare metal before being primed/pained? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPRA4EVA Posted July 17, 2021 Author Share Posted July 17, 2021 So I got some new fenders and they did in fact come pained. They are black and I want to apply a gray 2K primer before applying the base coat. Is the primer Toyota uses good enough? A paint shop mentioned to me, if they did the work, they'd strip it and re prime it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's shipping primer, you want to sand it off before applying your own primer etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, that's gonna be fun lol I may have to bust out the paint stripper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
