Is there any how to guides on the net?

 

You pick up the brush, dip it in the paint, and move the brush back and forth on the car. Easy like that, hope it helps bud

 

Well, this may help clean up the smart ars's
I am looking to buying an older camaro or firebird. (Wish me luck going to look at a 78 camaro 350/350 monday) Well, I want to do a restoration to learn from it. So if I could acutally get some really help, I got a full garage, got a spray gun and an air compresser.

Just need to know how much primer, sanding, and finishing compound. That kinda of stuff!

So please be helpful!

 

I don't know of anything on the net, but then again I haven't looked really either. Painting isn't real hard, just time consuming, clean is very important. Next is ventalation some box fans(not a real good idea) works with furnace filters to filter the air, you need to pick your paint, primer, reducer clear, flex additive etc. these should all be from the same company to insure compatibility.
Probably wouldn't pick anything less than Dupont or PPG or House of Kolour, something along those lines.
There are lots of books on it, basically the time and effort you put into it will show.
Did I awnser any of your questions, have any specifics?

 

i've never done it, but seen it done alot...
i'd love to be around when you do it
shoot me an email. are u anywhere near flint?
