I have some bad news, if you have little divots in the paint, spraying on another layer will leave little bubbles under the new primer, what will happen in the future, once you cover it with paint, is that will be able to see everywhere there was a bubble, it will shrink more in those spots. If...

Nice, Any Updated Pics? =p~

The bright silver will degrade quicky and will rub off, the darker silver will probably last longer. I would paint the outside trim silver, then the center grill dark, then spray it all with a clear to seal it. Remember, the cleaner and better prepped the substrate is, the longer it will last.

Bare metal requires something, factory primer needs to be sealed. You can spray etch on the bare spots, but not on anything else. And you are limited to what you can put over etch. You can also spray epoxy over bare and primer, but it does not sand well, you need something over it if you sand...

You do not have to strip existing primers as long as you have properly applied them. Seal everything with a sealer, or better yet an epoxy primer reduced 20% to make it a sealer. Just make sure everything is as smooth and finished as possible before spraying the epoxy (its very hard to sand...

Yup, autobody101.com

Its technically laquer, but it uses acetone as a base, so you thin it with acetone. This makes it much more environmentally friendlier, as acetone is heavier than air, it does not affect air quality. Also, it has very little smell, outside my garage, you could not tell I was painting. And...

I did some practice this weekend, and made up a test panel with the etch, primer, base, and clear I will be painting my car with, I also wanted to get a feel for my paint gun, and how the paint sprays out and behaves. I learned a lot. The gun I have I bought a few years ago, HVLP, it needs 8.4...

I have chosen to go with a NON black interior for a few reasons. 1. I live in Texas, its just too hot for black interiors. 2. White is too hard to keep clean. 3. Red looks badass with a Black car and Red stripe.

try pushing on it by hand to pop it out, but don't force it. If you don't know whatn you are doing, then you can make the rest of the roof worse. You can also fill it with a quality filler if its not too deep (less than 1/4"). Use Evercoat Featherlite for filling it.

3m general trim adhesive, usea toothpick to apply a very small amount to the back of the stripe, let is set up, then press it down, dont do it wet or it will squeeze out.

By The Time You Buy All The Little Parts To Go With, You Could Buy A New One.

A couple of reasons. 1. My painting skills are limited, metallics take considerable talent, which I don't have yet. And I cant afford to pay someone to paint my car. 2. The car is a 6cyl car, not worth restoring to original, so I am going to paint it whatever looks best. If it was a 340 or...

Is that in english? :???:

Even better, my buddy had a 70 Roadrunner that was Gold with the black hood stripe, and the gold and black interior, that was real sharp. He hated the color, but I fell in love with it the moment I saw it. It was basically how they set up a white interior car, with black trim, but the major...

Anybody? Help?

I need some help, I need some measurements, if you have the bumble bee stripe on your Dart. I am going to paint the stripes onto my dart, under the clear. I need to know specifically, how far forward they start from the back of the quarter panel, and what are the with of the strips and the gaps...

That is what I have been doing, just use a good sealer. Check out my link.

Figures I ask a simple question, A or B? The answers I get, D, H, P, L, Q, and Z! :razz:

I had a custom painted black Dakota before, I know the pains, but it looks so damn good!

Resale is the only reason I would paint it red :grin:

OK, I have been killing myself trying to make this decision, and I still can't decide. I want to get your opinions please. If it is Black, then it will have a Red stripe and red interior. If it is red, then it will have a white stripe and either a red or black interior. Choice 1: Choice 2:

Here is a brain twister, tell me if you can figure this one out! :munky2:

G'Day, AAR also makes an "extra" tall version of that scoop if you need any extra clearance, and Apples, she'll be. Get one of those and you'll be grinning like a shot fox. If you are looking for american slang words, try the SRT4 forums, the "blokes" here are too old to be up that stuff...

And that would be if they had it in stock. Have you tired http://www.texasacres.com/

That would be ok for a few pits, but if you did that to something that had 100's of pits, it would take forever. Most platers use copper, then grind it down.

"Kick his *** Sea-bass!"

Is that an AAR scoop?

Thanks, I spent most of the Morning reading that. Good info.
