I took the afternoon off yesterday and painted the car. It turned out well, the color is Saturn Yellow, L13M. I made one major screw-up, let's see if you can find it. This car is slated for a 327-300 SBC conversion. Every time I paint I learn something. I am living proof that anyone can paint a car, 90% prep, 5% paint and 5% luck! Since I live in Michigan, any part that is covered, gets a coat or two of Por-15, that's why the door sills and firewall are not painted. The car was white!

Yeah thats a hard spot to get to also. You almost need to shoot it before you do anything else. Otherwise it is easy to drag the hose in the paint. You basically have to point the gun at yourself. I did mine the lazy way with the front and rear windshields in the car. But this car was practice and learning anyway.
BTW I used the PPG Omni MBC also.... (IMG:http://www.members.cox.net/jasons7/paint/afterpaint1.JPG) |
