I know I could have just emailed Xotic and asked them directly, but I figured that someone else will probably have the same questions at some point, and we have Xotic reps here, so why not share the knowledge?
My first question is about plastic prep. On Xotics website they give specific sandpaper grits to use with steel, aluminum, and fiberglass, but none for plastics. What would your recommendations be?
Under what circumstances would you recommend using the adhesion promoter? Alot of my project is going to be over plastic and chrome. The chrome parts have all been sandblasted until there is basically no gloss. So far with the plastic I've done the "normal" prep, scuffing it with 220, and washing it with Fusor plastic prep until water sheets instead of beads.
Will the epoxee stick well enough to those substrates, or should I get some adhesion promoter as well?
