take off the part u want to spray. sand it good so the piant duznt run. u can primer it but its not necisary if u sand it. go side to side with the can and get the paint on good but dont go to close or it will run. let it dry over nite and it shood be good. =]

No, you sand the surface good then you put many layers of paint, not just one or otherwise it will go off.

get all the work done on it before you paint. when youre ready to paint use a few coats (3-4) of primer, and lightly sand between each coat with some 400 grit paper. then put on a decent amount of color coats (i like to use the whole can) then clear coat (5-6 coats). should be good after that.

and make sure to hold the can a good 6 inches away and go a steady speed, going too quick wastes paint from overspray and going too slow causes drips.
