Want to paint my car in the spring.
Will be doing it myself.
I want to paint it candy apple red, but can't find any good pics on the net.
Anybody got?
Post links to sites if you got too.

Thanks

 

Do you have any experience? If not, I would practice painting my beater first, or other peoples cars

good luck

 

I've been painting for 4 years now and am a liscenced technician.
I know what i'm doing, thanks.

 

i've been looking for pix of a candy apple red camaro for a long time. IamSparc on this board has a red candy apple 5th gen & some great pix. do a search for him

also - i researched it a lot b/c i wanted to do it to my car and - well, be prepared to spend a lot of money on your paint job. most of the good candy apple jobs that i have seen have required about 2 coats of whatever base you choose, 6 coats of candy apple and at least 2 clear coats.

 

thanks for the replys, i know it's expensive but i've got that covered.

Anyone else know anybody, maybe even some pics of some other nice reds?

 

Oh i checked out IamSparc's car and thats not candy apple red.

It looks more like GM color cheyenne red I think its called.

 

i'd be interested to see it on an f-body but i think that color might look better if it stayed on classics

 

why not just get a ppg catalog and find the color you want?
