use a satin black you wont see all the spray lines as you do flat and it looks almost the same.
and they do have a clear coar for flat ill see if i can find it again. it kept it looking flat to it just like added a layer of protection

yeah, like someone said on the first page, make sure to do it on a warm day. the paint says on the back of the can a temperature range to spray in for best results. be sure to do that, but then NOT drive the car till it's 100% cured so it doesn't flake or anything.
I'm looking forward to a nice home-done paint job here!! Good luck with it man!!

For some reason I found flat black easier to spray than satin black but satin blue easier than flat black.:???:use a satin black you wont see all the spray lines as you do flat and it looks almost the same.

How many cans will I need per setup (primer and then spray) to do the entire car. Im painting the outside and all the jams too. I was thinking 5-6 for primer and 5-6 for spray. That should do it, right?

same here it loooks really nice too imobuddy of mine painted his car flat black for 25 bucks including primer. lol
if you sand it, primer it, and spray it, it could work out. his didn't look to bad. didn't peal while he had it either

if your going the can route i'm thinkin like 3 cans just for one door especially if you are going to wet sand it to get orange peel and drips off. so i would think like 20 cans minimum.How many cans will I need per setup (primer and then spray) to do the entire car.

If you want to resell the car I wouldn't spray paint it, but if you're just looking at this car like you're gonna mess it up, go for it. If your aiming towards the latter then why do you care about scratches and fades in the first place.

I would never sell this teg. It is my first car and has been so loyal to me. No accidents or anything (just one ticket, which I have yet to recieve in mail...cited on Jan. 1). And its going to be a year in March. She is my baby, and I'm going to run her into the ground, nicely.
