Look in the yellow pages and find the nearest Automotive Paint Supply Store. The guy there will be happy to fix you up with every thing you need including a book on how to do it.

 

Ya call your local paint store , you`ll need
Base paint , clear , hardner , reducer, primer , reducer, stir sticks , mixing cups, 1500 sand paper to wet sand for that glass look after the clear is dry then rub it out the whole car thast about it.

i found house of kolor base black will that match pretty good?

 

my unkle sprays foam everyday and theres a paint booth at his shop.for the primer imm be useing a 1.6mm tip for the base/clear imma be useing a 1.3mm tip is that ok?how many coats of primer/base/clear will i need?

 

Im going to tell you now that house of Klor paint is expensive & is very hard to touch up my bike is painted house of Klor Kandy red awesome color but expensive I have about $500.00 in just paint on my bike. As for the black just buy a standard Omni black cheap but great paint easy to spray , also Omni makes a sweet clear just thin it out 10 percent after adding the hardner. as for primer I dont know 2-3 coats then wet sand it baby butt smooth , paint a good 3-4 coats clear another 3-4 coats that way you can wet sand it smooth , everyone has there own opinion but I paint all the time & this works for me.

thanxs man any other tips?

 

JUst take your time dont rush your paint coats give to base coat a good 15-20 minutes between coats , when you clear give time also depending on the temp a good 10-20 minutes also so its tacky , like I said dont rush it or you`ll redo it , LOL

Good luck.
