I'm considering buying an older corsa, and want 2 experiment tidying it up myself. Just wondering if anyone has got any websites giving tutorials/tips about spraying, filling etc.

I'm a complete novice and have only ever sprayed some M3 mirrors and my boot surround, which i sprayed with rattle cans, so if i'm considering colour coding etc, i was thinking in investing in a cheap (2nd hand ??) compressor and gun.

Any other help welcome cos i'm clueless really !!!

Cheers

Steve
