^^ guys ... just a question for you . when you guys do a new paint job , do you scrub off the old paint and then do the new one or just directly start with the base coat for the new paint job ... If you do take off the old paint , then how ? fine grade sand paper came to mind ,but ... won't that damage the fiber parts of the FZ16 ... hope I haven't annoyed you with the questioning , thanks

initially, some very fine grade sand paper is used over the old paint...this is to generate some gripping surface for the new paint's base coat....and since very fine grade of sand paper is used, it can be assured that no damage will happen to the fiber parts...hope i have answered your query...

yup that set the record straight in my head ... I asked because I wondered how it would've felt if you had to get rid of the old paint job to do the new one after putting in so much work on the old one ...that would've been hell (atleast to me) .
