anyone on here a do paint jobs? well i want to buy everything that i need to paint my car on a "right way to do things" level and i need help gettin started. me being new to painting, need to know what brands are good and what brands are bad, average prices and maybe even where to buys. also, wat makes some thing about that particular item better then the competition if your goin to recommend something. as of right now, willing to spend 1k for everything.
wow if you're serious and dedicated... its gonna cost you lots of money plus time to learn how to paint. i have most of the components in my garage but its more of my pops expertise.
-1 strong compressor that will provide a constant pressure that doesn't drop.
-2 paint guns - one for painting, and one for primering - makes things a lot easier instead of cleaning and switching back and forth.
-reducer, hardner, paint thinner, etc... along with the paint + clear itself
-well ventilated area... cause you can get fined if your neighbors call the city.
thats on top of my head, i use to work for an autobody with my pops but its more advanced for skilled folks. takes lots of years and experience to master. i can't really go too much into detail, but its as much as i know. as far as brands go... i've heard lots of goods and bads from k-mart brands... and of course the major brands are good but uber pricey. i'll try and check what brands my pops carries.
