Um...... Well full paint job or car. Got the car for free totally rust free. All chrome and interior minus engine. So as of now with engine - paint engine trans I'm a total of 1000 into it. ![[Smile]](smile.gif) only thing that is really questioned is the trans. I still got to do exhaust, front seats, headliner, disk brake swap, and maybe 4 link... So I can stick some fattys under it. That's only if I like it long enough to mob it around. I really don't have enough time to be driving these old school and maintaining them. I really want to do an old School truck, since I can use a truck with 4 wheel drive.

As hot as it has been I wouldn't want to paint in my garage LOL. I'd do some wet sanding to stay cool.

No beer for me. We are prepping 5 forklifts at work for touch up paint. We got 4 guys ( Im the only one with blocking experience. ) working on them right now. Almost have the first two ready for some touch up etching primer and set aside. Gonna prep all 5 then paint two at a time in our shop. I'll take a pic of our ghetto paint/dexter kill room.

You got any tips you've learned from painting in your garage for a newb? Like have you built a filtration system with a couple fans to help with ventilation?
I imagine its almost impossible to lay down your base coat without at least a few dust spots, requiring a little fixing before clear coats.
I only ask because just last week I helped do some indoor painting on some big rigs and without a booth it turn out pretty damn good LOL....... Got to use a real nice paint gun. Makes me want one now.

I don't build a paint boot in my garage. I just clean it well and make sure the day that i'm painting it's not windy. Of course your gonna get a few dust spots in the paint, but cutting and buffing usually fixes all that. On 2 stage paints I use a tack rag between coats to get any dust off, but on single stage paints you cant. Only use tack rag on base, not clear.

What grit did you start cutting with and what'd you end with.
