Painting
 
Hi guys . I'm planning on painting my car within the next week .
I've got the paint , compresser , the gun and even a large garage to do it in .
Do I need to primer the whole car? It has had primer on I but I've rubbed it back in places . It's stripped as far as I dare , some more sanding and filling over the next few days then that's it.
If any body wants to lend a hand with some wet and dry please feel free :smile:
Thanks
Jason

First coat is on . Can still see some imperfections so I'm rubbing down again today . Second coat on later. Hopefully get some pictures on soon( if someone shows me how to do it !)

If you use Photobucket (you will need to create an account) upload the photo you want to share then there is a box to the side of the image marked IMG. You just click on that and then paste into the reply box on the thread - hey presto, image is created.

Another one (nearly) finished then. I bet you are glad the sanding is over...

Drummajor 16th August 2013 10:09

I do not miss the sanding . As soon as the rain stops I will post some pictures .

Probably needs lowering an inch or two to finish off the look.

Drummajor 16th August 2013 19:48

It was lowered , I hated it. Felt like I was going to break my back .

landmannnn 16th August 2013 21:02

Yeah, unless you spend £600 on a decent set of coilovers it is a harsh ride.

Drummajor 19th August 2013 10:19

New leather seats ordered and paid for.
Getting lots of attention when I drive her which of course is what's meant to happen
