Hey guys how are you? So I recently bought a '99 Dodge Ram and the current paint is a little rough. So I was thinking about spraying the truck down with Raptor Liner on the whole truck, but I would like to know your opinions .There are quite a few small dings and one big one that looks like the previous owner already tried to buff out. Would regular paint go over those small dings and scratches, how does Raptor Liner look do any of you have Raptor Lined trucks, and last question do the stickers next to the windows come off easy(see attachment)?
Thank you

 

High build primer will only cover very very very small dings. Prep work is 98% of a paint job cost. The emblems have to come off and I believe the door pillar is painted black, but if not they will have to come off

 

Ok so since Raptor Liner is much thicker would it cover the smaller stuff or would I be able to take out the small scratches with prep?

 

If they are just scratches then sanding will take them out. Raptor Liner will cover minor dents but it's also a lot harder to clean and takes more prep (if it's like Line X)

 

Ok that makes much more sense thank you.

 

If you are sanding it use your finger nail to find any ridges. If there is a ridge sand it down until it's flat. Dents are a whole nother issue

 

So what would be a good way to get a dent out myself, a plunger? ahaha

 

If you can get behind it pushing it out while hammering the edges. If not welding studs to it and pulling it or if you have the money buy a stud welder it's designed specially to do dents

 

What’s the kit I’ve seen that superglues disks to the panel, giving something to pull from.
I’ve also seen clusters of hotmelt gluesticks melted onto the dent and pulling that.

 

I don't know the exact name of the kit but I don't believe they work that well.
