Has any one sprayed both ppg & Omni.
you can get 2 stage omni for half the price of PPG I have use PPG in the past and was wanting an opinion of the omni which would be better single stage PPG or 2 stage omni. Any words from experiece would be appreciated (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

OMG, you want the whole procedure, lol, that's gonna take awhile. I'll have to get back to you on that.
Couple of things, basics on paint. You do get what you pay for. Good paint isn't cheap. Neither are the other supplies you're going to need, ie, sand papers, compounds, buffing pads, sealer coats, spot putty, fillers,etc. Preparation and cleanliness is the key to do a good job, shooting the paint is the easy part. I spent approx $1200 on paint and supplies. I took the car to a PCA tech session at Phil Thearles Shop after I finished her, He does all the High End cars. He took a look at the 6, said he'd have charged $8000 for the paint job. Anyway, I'll write up what I did, tools I made, etc, and post it later |
