Maaco paint job?

Some of the state prisons have auto body and paint shops and take in outside work.
Usually WAY cheaper too.

I think The Restoration Shop stuff is pretty good, and a gallon of single stage acrylic urethane from them is about $125 shipped for basic colors and comes with the high gloss hardener, paint sticks and filters.
It can even be ordered from Walmart with free shipping right to your house.

This was done outside in my back yard with a cheap 10 gallon compressor.
Whole car cost me about $350 and this was after a light cut and buff.

Yes it an be done!!!!!!! Put enough single stage for the cut/buff deal is a key. I have used TCP Global stuff right along with DuPont and PPG for quite a few years, great buy I have never had any problems.

I bought my first HF thing last month, their 21 gal oil compressor, I forget the hp but it was like $320 on sale. Worthless to run a DA for sure, but it will run the gravity guns, palm sanders, no problem. I did single stage and I was happy.
