    DIY Automotive Painting...noob inside!

    It's definitely something to keep in mind when spraying metallic over a solid color paint job, but the advantage to the OP is he/she is painting the entire car. Blending a metallic job can be a serious chore. Up there in difficulty with three stage. An entire metallic paint job is a bit more...

    DIY Automotive Painting...noob inside!

    I've been doing bodywork for twenty years now so I will give you my two cents on the subject. I agree 100% with the others that have said that prep will determine the outcome of a paintjob.

    I had a pretty weak weekend of scores, but I didn't spend more than $20 so that's more in the pocket for the next round. I am hoping this season picks up within the next few weeks. This winter has kicked me in the junk. Even when I found a score I had to freeze my *** off in a garage or barn...

    The VISES of Garage Journal
