Default RE: get real guys!

Practice on a used car hood from the yard or ask mom if she wants her car painted.

After you get the hang of it, it will become very easy, and you can start making money.



Keep a safe distance, even layer, dont ever spray over any wet paint unless you want RUN, dont stay in one section or area too long.

After the car, then your ready for the dash and interior pieces etc. Its fun, so LEARN. I bet you can do it.

Ive met great painters that never finished high school.

Dont give this guy false hope.There is too much to learrn to give an online crash course
It will look like $%#*if you dont know what your doing and you will regret it.
At least do all the prep and then take it to Maaco for $250.00 and get a decent job.
I repeat if you dont know what your doing and have never painted you will #$%&* up a nice car.
Or if youre going to DIY practice in a dummy car but dont make your Nice mustang a practce car.
Your your information, I never held a paint gun, better yet a sanding block before I painted my car. Its now over a year and the paint is still flawless on the car. Pics in post
