How to paint your car in your garage with pics
A quick photo diary of my DIY paint job
Wash down garage and sand car with 400 grit sandpaper:
Mask off parts that you don't want painted:
Hang plastic sheeting to cut down dust and overspray. Hang parts from cables so you can spray them off the floor:
A paint suit and respirator are your friends:
I then primed and wet-sanded with 800.
Sprayed with color:
Painted front end. Needs sanding & clear coat:
Masked off the rest of the car to paint the roof black:
Tomorrow I will be color sanding with 1500 grit and then spraying clear coat on it. Stay tuned!
