I re-did the zolatone on my first sled. Just as Stam said. Turned out great! I used 1.5 gallons of zolatone and a couple quarts (2 coats) of clear coat. I too used a HVLP and had no problems. This is the time to patch up any old screw/drill holes also (JB Weld and sand over them). You'll do fine FP!
