Made that mistake once, won't again.

Plus, primer and then paint layers down like butter after sandblasting. The biggest
part in making sure you get a good to great paint job is all in prep prep prep.
it's a fork,...were talking about 10 minutes with the red scotch pad and a scuff paste, clean it up and then shoot.

but I agree, sandblasting is by far the easiest, and you get the best adhesion.

but the tie coat or the etch primer work just as well, IF you prep clean
