How to Paint an Emblem: Step 4

Almost ready to paint!!! It is a good idea to use a tac rag when painting. You will want to wipe the surface down between basecoat and before clearcoat.

Bulldog is a product that helps paint stick to plastic. Spray on a very light coat after the emblem is clean and dry before applying paint.



You are now ready to spray the color coat (also known as your base coat). This particular blue is quite transparent. It is important to get good coverage with the paint because the original gold may show through. It would be a good idea to start with a color that has better coverage such as white or grey and then apply the transparent color. Either way, keep an eye on how the base looks before you clear.
