Paint job advice
Discussion
Particularly aimed at Wildfire this one...
after umming and ahhing for a while about what to do to get rid of the various scrapes knocks chips and keyings on my old S2 - I have decided to bite the bullet and get 'tooled up' to have a go myself.
I have looked on ebay for paint tools and recon i should be able to get a compressor and gun for less than £100
really i just want a bit of advice from you guys as to how to get the best results
I am going to tackle the front spoiler first (as its barely visible) and work my way around the car
the colour is 420-5038 (I understand this to be 'Jaguar Brooklands Racing Green'
Other than spending massive amounts of time & effort on preparation, are there any other handy tips anyone knows of how to get the best results?
I'm looking to get the car as professional looking as possible but dont have the cash at the moment to spend a grand or so on five individual repairs by a bodyshop.
(I'll post some before & after pics here when I'm done
)
