Hi, I bought a plastic or something like plastic bumper I want to paint
I bought paint that they said has something in it so it will work with plastic, it's MBC acrylic basecoat omni au
Since the bumper is plastic do I have to prime it
The plastic bumper just has a dark primer coating or something like a primer on it, the bumper is real slippery, do I have to sand it, what grade sandpaper shoild I use
There is some dust on the bumper, should I wash it with water or just wipe it off
On the paint can it says OB10 and it shows a picture that looks like pages in a book, what does that mean
Thank you for any help
Jerry

wash the bumper and then sand it with ajax and a grey scuff pad, if it is hard plastic you wont need to use a flex agent in your paint.

after you scuff it use bulldog. This helps with adhesion just spray on bumper let flash for about 15 minutes the go with the top coats as normal.
