Preperation
Cleaning
Start by removing all mould lines from the body, using various grades of abrasive paper P400 - P1000
Most manufacturers of resin and plastic kits use a mould release agent to allow castings to release better from the mould. The release agent prevents the paint from adhering to the parts. For this reason you will need to remove it from the body/parts. This can be done by cleaning the body with Key and Clean, (available separately), this contains a dual-action cleaner that removes silicones, waxes, other contaminates and contains micro abrasives which help to scuff the plastic so the primer adheres better. Alternatively wash with mild warm soapy water and lightly sand the panels/body with abrasive paper to key the plastic for the primer.
