Painted A Car

Post by Rage on September 16th 2010, 2:26 pm

This car was painted last year and it was cracking and seperating and bubbling , it looked like total crap , so this guy offered me a couple of nice spray guns , a D.A. sander , buffer and lots of chemicals , paper tape etc. all new , to sand and paint his car , so I said ok I can use it as practice and get some cool tools of the trade why not , it cant look any worse then it was , so here's some pics of this car after I stripped down the all the yellow paint off the car and of course he wanted to be painted yellow again , let me know what you's think , I'm still no pro but I did much better with this car then I did my own , guess it goes to show "better tools better job " atleast in the car painting world .

Looks good. Always good to paint and get tools to boot.

So... I've got a set of screw drivers, a new hammer, an old hammer, and a couple crow bars... will that cover my body work and a paint job??

I'll even throw in a set of jack stands and some used tires!
afro

But for real... it looks really good from the pictures. Keep up the good work!
I've got to really work at getting my car on the road. Otherwise I won't be able
to afford what you'll charge for a paint job at the rate you're coming along.
