I'm not saying spraying is easy, its taken me ages to sort out my spraying. Respraying a car is a job which is don't really want to do because of the amount of work invloved. Blending paint in isn't easy either, i haven't done much of it, but practice is wot u need | |

:lol: i love how people think painting is easy!. Painting a set of mirrors or a bodykit is a piece of piss. Anyone can pick that up... what about washing in paint?, blending paint?, respraying full cars?, recoating?, can you tell me what type of needles or nozels to use for different paints?. | |

As you can only buy set sizes/amounts then you will need to buy more than you really need, if you had a paint mix scheme or access to one, then you could make up a more exact amount... but you know the saying..."better too much than not enough!". | |

the paints gonna cost maybe 30 quid a litre, depending on metallic,aluminium or how nice it is, etc, and i rekon your gonna need about 1.5 litres. do you have a de-humidifier, and a spotlessly clean spraying area? | |
