    well... there's the usual surface preparation.
    then there's the paint compatibility between what's on the skid plate and what's in the can. the sprayed paint may not stick well enough.
    and since it's the skid plate, i suppose we won't worry too much about imperfections of the sprayed area...
    overall, i say go.
    good luck.

    totoo iyan doc. it doesn't have to be perfect pero syempre gusto ko makinis pa din.

    ano ba ang akmang grit na gagamitin dapat sa pag prep ng skid plate? meron na din kasi bahid ng kalawang.

    kelangan ba lagyan din ng primer? meron pa kasi akong white primer in spray paint sa bodega. iyon nga lang puti siya na ginamit ko dati sa pag pintura pagkatapos kaskasin ng hpg iyong paint sa serial number ng fd2 ko.

    nakuser,
    nalimutan ko na ang grit number ng mga iyan. "ordinary household waterproof sandpaper" should do fine. sorry.
    color of primer doesn't matter. makukuberan rin naman kasi ng outer coat, eh.
    nung kinaskas yung pintura ng kotse namin for the ID number, nilinis ko pagkatapos at brinochahan ng primer, para hindi kalawangin. puede rin naman ibang paint. linisin lang para kumapit pintura.
    good luck.
