You must sand the surface very well, to obtain a glossy finish you can use more and more grains of sandpaper. You must sand the surface until you are satisfied when touching the surface, and something very important that you must always remember is that the more you sand the smoother the surface will be, of course it is already up to each person and their tastes.<\/p>\n<p>Now you must clean the surface with a mild soap solution or mineral alcohol. Do not use turpentine to clean a fiberglass surface, wash thoroughly and then remove residue with clean water.<\/p><div class=\"786779b4acc6e4adea843a286a546e93\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px;\">\n<div class=\"cfmonitor\">\r\n<div style=\"text-align: left; padding:0px 0px 20px 0px\">\r\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- pintura-para-adaptable -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4057518552286107\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"9459895312\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"link\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><strong>3. &#8211; Now choose the first coat of paint<\/strong>.

Also, if time is our biggest problem, the spray gun will help you finish the job in less time.<\/p>\n<p>Fiberglass paint is widely used, especially in these two cases:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>for painting fiberglass swimming pools<\/strong>,<\/li>\n<li><strong>for painting motorcycle helmets<\/strong>, the material of which is fibreglass,<\/li>\n<li>and <strong>for painting boats<\/strong>.
