So me and a friend painted the roof of my car, the bumper (where there was paint) and the grill by the wipers bright smurf blue with spray paint. We did it all with one can. Its smooth, bright, and awsome! I found my camera so pics will be up when it finishes drying. Its a bit humid so im expecting it to take a few hours.First Pic ![]() Scroll down for the rest of them Edited by DesmondGhostRider, Jul 21 2010, 02:48 AM.

Does rust count as scuff?? I just painted the entire 92 XFI using rustoleum flat black. I ran some high grit sandpaper all over the original teal finish. Now that the car is entirely flat black, I'll again run a high grit sandpaper over it and paint again using high gloss black rustoleum, then hit is all with a coat of clear. Should come out looking pretty good. Pictures soon. Edited by GeoStalker, Jul 13 2010, 11:28 AM.

I don't know CB.....ask the forum how my paint jobs turn out. Previous 92 XFI before rehab and paint ![]() ![]() .....and after rehab and paint, using primarily rustoleum flat white, light sanding, then high gloss white and clear coat, with competition blue stock paint. ![]() Don't crack on Rustoleum! It covers well, easy to sand and cheap to buy. Edited by GeoStalker, Jul 13 2010, 11:57 AM.

Heres some pics of the first coat. The roof got 2, but it needs one more. There are a few dark spots, but with a very light sanding and one more layer they will look just fine. ![]() ![]()

Once the whole car is one color, it won't be so bad. I would not have painted the rims blue though. |
