Very impressed. I was thinking I would need to take it to a paint shop, but was reconsidering. Mind letting us know where you did your research if it was online so we can get some more background about prepping etc. Thanks.

I used alot of different sources. You tube is great. "restolad" was really helpful: http://www.youtube.com/feed/UCnSO5nD9hBA4YP8ykFnPqVg
Also autobody101.com was great.

Also, you local auto body paint store is a great resource. Make sure you ask them for the technical product sheet of the paint you purchase and follow it closely. It will give you, mixing ratios, flash times, paint gun tip, air settings, coat application etc.

Thanks for posting links to the resources. I am ignorant when it comes to painting a vehicle but would like to learn. Looks like I have some reading to do before jumping into this.

Inspiring. Really. Nice job.

Many of us could do this, but have been afraid (me included). I need to step up to a real compressor.

Thanks.
