paint?

Go to a professional paint and bodyshop supply house.
Since you didn't already know that,I'm going to guess that you don't have the experience to use the paint or other supplies they sell.
So that being said,take the car to a custom paint shop and get ready to shell out a few dollars to have the car painted by a pro.Red paint is the most expensive color there is so don't be shocked when they tell you it's going to cost a couple thousand just to start a decent full body paint job.
Body work is one of the easiest things there is to ruin the looks of a car.What looks like a great job will fall seriously short after the color goes on and the flaws are highlighted.Pinholes,sanding marks,waves,mismatched panels,primer faults,solvent pop,etc,will all show up AFTER the final color is sprayed on and the only fix is to sand all the faulty paint off and start over.
I'm not a great painter by any means butI do speak from experience.I've had all these things happen to me and have given up painting for more,,,,,mechanical,,,projects.
Great painters are true artists.
