Gonna throw a fast coat of paint on a old dodge daytona, what would be the easiest kind of paint to use, I dont want a clar coat just a nice black color. Its a 250 dollar car so anything will look better than it does.
did you really paint the charger with a roller?
TCP global has a great single stage system . right around 100 bucks for the 1 gallon kit which comes with the reducer and hardener
How much of that tractor supply paint and hardner do I need? How do you mix it? Anybody ever here of plasti dip?
Good stuff. ^
Acrylic Enamels should be painted with a tac-coat first. Never go full mid/wet coat and follow up. The first one or two coats is best not to try and get full coverage on Acrylic Enamel and the final coat will stay nicely and lay out fantastic.
If you are doing this in a home grown booth, a couple of clean tac cloths, used vigilantly, are your best friend before shooting it.
I'm really curious about the roller job. Esp. on the Charger. I'd love to see pics or video.
I don't know that a roller could ever do a metallic and look right, but it would be interesting to see how level the gloss dries on a black car.
gallon is what I was thinking, Its gotta look better than it did, Im not expecting miracles, Im not sure what reducers are used for, or how to mix the hardner.
Do NOT even think about it! It WILL look worse, I promise.Anybody ever here of plasti dip?
I shot my old 71 d100 with ace hardware rust paint thinned with mineral spirits.
This is not buffed straight out of the gun, less than $50.00 for paint materials.
Sadly it got totaled a couple years later.
