Learning to paint....
I'm 66 now and started when I was 18 when I fixed my first dent on a Valiant station wagon fender and painted it with Dupli color. It turned out good for a hack job. I bought my Swinger and painted it Hemi Orange in a local Tech school 1975. They showed me the ropes and helped me. After that I was hooked. This same car was restored and painted in 2009. I re cleared it today in my home made booth at home shop. Always use good equipment and materials. Dont scrimp, it never saves money. I try my best to stay away from Chinese junk. This spray today was with my new Sagola spray gun made in Spain. Blended a qtr panel and cleared the whole car with Sherwin Williams glamour clear. Talk to people to see if there is a tech school in your area and dont be afraid. You will probably be able to befriend some guys at local shows and hang outs that can help you. I met one of my best friends that way. Good luck and ask questions on this forum.
