    I'm finding difficulty in getting a primer in spray form -there isn't any!!!

    I can only find primer out of a tin, using a brush and all that!

    Minor setback! Maybe if I try putting that primer in a spray bottle or something, the ones used for window cleaners?? What do you think?

    No, but I tried paint shops, I found paint spray cans there but didn't find primer spray cans. It's not used in that form in Egypt.

    This is probably a dumb question, so forgive my newbiness.

    I most likely read here about sanding between paint coats. I'm trying to follow the plastic painting tips here, so maybe that process is different. Should you sand between coats? I noticed a comment regarding polishing compound, but would 1000 or higher grit wet sanding work, as well? I'm mostly concerned about cleaning up drippy-looking areas and removing any other minor flaws before the next coat, and I'm wondering if you need to wait until the paint is completely cured, or should you attempt to sand while slightly tacky?

    Thanks for any replies.
