-rogue- Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 but right now i dont have the money to get a paint job my dad and i sanded my car and did all the body work we were gonna get some primer and spray it out this week so my car could be a solid color but i have been ready some other forums and people have said instead of priming it and leaving it to prime it and buy a cheap paint and go over it would that be a smarter idea instead of leaving just a primer on it. thank u Quote Link to comment
lil89ram50 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 well it depends, how do you want the finished product to be? the more you put on the more your guna have to sand off to do a good paint job, but you can do a really good rattle can, if you take your time, you can even clear it Quote Link to comment
Drive510 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 That's cool if you know that the rust is stopped. If you willing to spend a bit of money, research some reputable shops in your area. Get the quote first for primer and sanding then ask them how much without so that you know what the job is worth and you're chances of getting the run-around will be less. How much of the car are you painting? Did you strip the interior and remove the seats/ Are you doing just the shell and door jambs or are you just planning on painting the outside shell same color. ,I'd love to see an 810 with a fresh new coat of paint. What color are you going for? I'd personally spend the extra money to have it done by a pro unless you have a compressor and all the right tools and know-how. PS. If you're planning on going rattle can - it can be messy. Drape anything and everything in your garage and try not to pass out from the fumes. There's a write up somewhere here on roll-on paint that actually turned out pretty good. I think there's also a youtube vid on it. Quote Link to comment
