hey all -
I've seen some painted targa tops that are smooth - how does one go about doing that? I looked at mine and it appears that the texture is part of the gelcoat or whatever the finish is on the targa top.... any 'how to' threads out there on this? td |

I will be using two tops so I can have the choice to change looks. I did a combo by first sanding the bare top part way to knock down the bumps relatively smooth but not to break through the gelcoat and expose the fibers. Then I applied a couple good coats of high build primer. It will then sand down completely smooth.
