Re: 81 malibu PROJECT "THA RUNT" UPDATES 7-9-11

HAHAHA! Well in that case I better start practicing on some panels. LOL! I think I can handle the job bruh. We got this!! Wont be "pro" quality but I will give it my best shot. Spraying from a gun with a base coat, clear coat system is so much better. I just need to learn how to "color sand" to flatten out all the orange peel and buff to a brilliant shine. With all the wet sanding ive done from 800 grit up to 2000 grit, I should be good..I want that paint to lay as flat, smooth and Creamy as Dave's elco. Did you see how there's no orange peel in his finish!!?? Thats wassup. I'll get it down and have fun while I learn.. More updates after work. Hope you dont mine me posting the detailed photo's in ya thread fam...

warren no doubt in my mind that you can do it. im sure there are places that still renot paint booth time cause that would be the best environment to paint in. i would also think spraying the wells from a gun would work better as you can get a more fluid tip....when we get to mine i may be just the test dummy your looking for lol.
 
Re: 81 malibu PROJECT "THA RUNT" UPDATES 7-9-11
