The steps for a full car paint job are: 1. Remove oil stains from the car's paint surface, degrease plastic surfaces, wash the vehicle with clean water, and perform rust removal on the car's paint surface. After rust removal, rinse again with clean water and check for any remaining rust residue. 2. Use zinc-based phosphating solution to phosphorate the steel surface. After phosphating the paint surface, rinse with clean water. Once cleaning is complete, allow the parts to be painted to dry. 3. When spraying paint, hold the spray gun about 20 centimeters from the object and spray evenly in multiple coats for better results. 4. After the paint is completely dry, apply a layer of clear coat to enhance gloss, protect the paint surface, and increase durability. Note that when applying multiple coats, maintain an interval of at least 10 minutes between coats to allow the paint to dry and prevent sagging. If sagging occurs, wait for it to dry, then sand with 600-grit sandpaper until smooth, and cover with a light spray from a distance.
