preping car for primer and masking it off geting ready to shoot primer, than sanded primer, wiped the car down.


after primer, base coat and sanding with 800 grit to get rid of orange peal. wiped it down and prep for clear with metal flake.


after, primer base and clear coat w/ metal flake




if some other local form member wants there car painted for cheap i might beable to do it. it was not that hard and it shure looks good in the sun.



more pics to come when i get the car fully reasembled and i will try and be at the taco'delmar meetup at the end of the month.

 

Paint on the wheels. Booo. Heh. Other than that, you did a pretty good job. I used to work in paint and one of the most important parts is prep. Aside from the wheels it looks like you did a pretty good job with the sanding and masking.

 

thanks man i spent days / hours on prep work. a huge thanks goes out to kompressorlogic aka ryan for lending me a set of stock wheels. after one of my rear aftermarket tires blew up. Its cool tho i can take some laccor thinnor to those wheels and clean them up.

 

im glad to see that you car made it to a single color
and it looks good!

 

yeah u better clean my wheels up real good! and dont use something that eats rubber.
