Re: Drum Set Painting
On a kit like that...
Take all the hardware off
Heat the wrap with a hair dryer and slowly peel the wrap off trying to avoid pulling up any wood
Get any extra adhesive off
Depending on the condition of the outer ply you may have to use some wood filler to smooth it out
Sand, sand, sand, sand (careful around the bearing edges)
Use a sealer/primer base coat and then whatever else you want after that.
If you want to paint on the old wrap (or lugs) then use an adhesion promoter first. DupliColor makes a good one that I've used a few times. Or if you just want to paint right on the plastic wrap you can use Krylon Fusion since it's made to adhere to plastic, and that stuff works really well.
