Alright

I am taking the plunge. After procrastinating for many months, I have
my cab stripped and sanded, ready for painting and stenciling. But the
all important question....

How long between coats and colors?

It's a Black Knight. I am going to be spraying a gray primer, then
black base, then two colored stencils (red and yellow)

I know on Jeff's site, he had his start to finish time as almost a
month. Reading Pinball Pal's info- the job sounds more like an
afternoon.

I feel like I've read every thread on the subject, too, but haven't
really gotten a grasp of how long is too long or how short is too
short as far as dry times. I am sticking with all the same brand-
Painter's Touch- start to finish. So no compability problems.

Any thoughts on how long I ought to wait from primer to base to
stencil to stencil?

Thanks

Is that going to work?
Red and Yellow over Black?
Maybe spray the Reds and Yellows first then stencil the Black over
those.
You'll only have to really make one stencil for Black as the Red and
Yellow don't
have to be precise, just general coverage of those areas with those
colors.
I have no clue as I've not done this before, so I'm just going by my
basic use of colors.
