megamannz123 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Posted October 17, 2014 Primer done, colour tomorrow. Quote
megamannz123 Posted October 18, 2014 Author Report Posted October 18, 2014 Got a couple of coats done today, should get it finished in the morning. It look pretty good I think the finish matches the rest of the car, not to glossy. Quote
bourtoni Posted October 19, 2014 Report Posted October 19, 2014 looking good mega,your mags look good,how much did they charge you to polish them? Quote
megamannz123 Posted October 19, 2014 Author Report Posted October 19, 2014 Cheers, about $60 each. Depends on their condition obviously. $40-$60. Coburg mag wheel polishers. Fits and balances tyres too. Quote
megamannz123 Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Posted October 20, 2014 Finished it up today, got the gun set better and it is now way smoother. Might do a little wet sanding in places but it looks pretty close to factory finish now. Sweet! Quote
parrot Posted October 20, 2014 Report Posted October 20, 2014 What pressure and paint/thinner ratio did you go with on your colour coats? Quote
megamannz123 Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Posted October 20, 2014 I was at 45psi at the gun, bought a little Supercheap digital gauge $22. 100 paint to 150 Aclac 20 Came out good for a first paint job, it's definitely a feel thing, next step will be the whole car. Next year maybe 😜 Quote
megamannz123 Posted October 22, 2014 Author Report Posted October 22, 2014 Finished it up with a quick buff and dropped the engine in. Quote
