Paint job in the driveway ends with a bang! :(


Recommended Posts

walmart $.96 rattle can special.

No ones hating, but you can easily tell its rattlecan. It's one of those things where people are going to keep doing it so its always going to have a following, but there is a definite difference in quality. Now, if I'm going to lay paint, I'll do it right the first time.

Now, the op said he's just selling it so quality isn't the main concern here, but no hating here.

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Not completely true dude. I've seen some kickass rattlecan jobs. Now granted, it was just sprayed and let dry...these guys primed, sprayed, sanded, sprayed, sanded, sprayed, wet sanded, clear coat, sand, etc...took some real time on it...but it was just to show that done right, spray paint can look good.

Just for you guys, I looked up my thread. I never updated it after I pulled the dent and sprayed a second cote though, it looked a lot better.

you can paint a car outside and have it turn out okay.

painted mine, first time ever painting a car, used a HVLP gun and a single coat of acrylic enamel.

The only way to delete your SMD account is for you crawl to steve meades door step on your knees and pleade for his forgiveness and acceptance to be released...He will either grant your wishes.....or choke you with a large piece of 0 gauge and electrocute you by hooking up a solid gold DC 12k at 0.000001 ohm and 10000 volts to your eye sockets and blow your head apart

You guys act like you have never clogged a toilet and ran around the bathroom frantically hoping it don't overflow.
