The Aztec 7 can be painted by any professional body shop or by yourself, if you have had any experience. Any
lacquer or enamel car paint will be suitable.
Sand the entire body, especially the fiberglass seams, edges and corners, using 120 grit sandpaper. Fill all deep
scratches with body filler and sand. Prime the entire body with any commercial body primer. Pay close attention to hidden
areas such as headlight boxes, body flanges, louver edges, etc.
Fill any scratches, holes, or uneven edges in the fiberglass using a glazing body putty. Re-sand using the 320-grit
sandpaper. If putty was used on many areas of the body or if there are uneven spots, re-prime the body and sand using
the 320-grit sandpaper.
NOTE: we do suggest that a professional do the actual painting of the car for the best results. However
much of the preparation can be done before taking it to the shop. Although the body can be painted after the
interior is completed and the car can be driven to the shop, it is recommended that you paint before completing
the interior to insure an even paint job and a clean interior.
