take your time and remember that the paint is only as good as whats below it, so do good prep and bodywork, and get use to sanding!

also, make sure the floor is clean and the ventilation system is fully up to par. be sure you have the proper breathing equipment and make sure the car is free of any paint or duraglass dust before priming or painting. tack cloths are a painters best friend.
