Hey guys i have just purchased a project car that just needs a bit of work. I won't be able to get started on it until next year so I am doing all my research now. So I have a few questions regarding cellulose.

Which colour is the easiest to work with for a amature? I can't decide if I want a light colour car or a dark colour car, so ease of a good finish would be a factor.
The 3 colours I have been thinking about are white, black or gun metal grey.

Thanks

White.
Hides little dents. Doen't show the dirt - until you wipe an area - and I speak from owning a white car & currently a white Sprinter van, plus the half a dozen Hillman Hunter company cars my late father had in the 70s.
Not difficult to do the small repairs that owning a car eventually entails!

Black shows absolutely everything, little dents look like the Grand Canyon & any paint defects stick out like sore thumbs.
