I have a ‘47 AD 3100 that finally is nearing the finish line. It was to be “finished” in September but it’s a long story. Everything is painted except for the hood. The exterior is a no brained. It’s the inside that I need some advice. I’m sure someone has dealt with this over the years.
The inside of the hood (underside) was sprayed with sound deadener/undercoating. I do not intend to wash/scrape this coating off. I’d like to simply paint over the undercoating with single stage enamel to make it Mariner Blue. I’m questioning the adhesion of the paint to undercoating considering the engine heat generated.
Certainly an option would be to add more undercoating to cover any overspray after the paint is dry.
Just trying to work smarter not harder.
Any experiences, opinions are greatly appreciated.
