What are the steps for spray painting?

[OSpencer]

After thoroughly cleaning the entire vehicle, identify the type of the old coating, assess the extent of damage to the workpiece, and determine the repair process. Protect the area around the damaged part with masking paper and degrease the area that needs to be sanded. Select the appropriate type of sandpaper and sander to remove the old paint from the damaged area and create a feathered edge. After cleaning and degreasing the workpiece, apply an appropriate amount of putty and dry it using an infrared heating lamp. Once the workpiece is sanded, use an air gun to remove dust from the surface and wipe the area around the putty with a degreaser.
