yes, sand it down with 320, then tape all the windows and you can spray it with high build primer and then wet sand it with 400
I would like to find out how to prepare car for a painting it at Macco. I wanna do the all prep by my self so they can just put the color coat on. Should I sand the car down?? if yes how and what grid to use? Should I put primer by my self or this is not necessary? Just to mention i wanna paint my car black.

thanks MKO i was expecting you to answer also , what is wet sanding?
there s sand paper that is dark gray to black in color and on the package it says For wet sanding. You get a bottle a drill a hole on the cap, then you start spraying some water on the primer and start sanding in circular movements. Just make sure you keep that surface always wet. You stop when youre happy with the smoothness of the primer. You can buy the sandpaper in Walmart, or any automotive parts store
on a side note, take your time wet sanding, black is a hard color to paint as it shows even the smallest of imperfections.

My car is silver , and I'll probably send it down , then primer it and wet sand and then ill drive up to Macco and I'm going to get black coat on it....... I always wanted this car to be black and on other side my silver coat is starting to looks worse and worse.
I bought the spray cans with high build primer I used at Walmart/ Automotive ISle
High fill primer is the fucking shit! you can literally watch that shit expand. It saved my ass big time on my front bumper.
