Ok guys I am a total noob here so be gentle.
I have myself a 9.5 cfm compressor (new and boxed)
No gun as of yet and no booth/garage either.

I have access to my mums driveway but I havent had a play yet as I dont want to piss neighbours off by spraying their cars if I do it on the drive - is that a danger :S - the hedges are pretty damn high eg 13ft lol.

I have a stter to practice on - Polo 1.0 in nasty reddy bronze with laquer peel all over top to bottom and about a million dents.

is it a must to have a booth, if so ill have to be creative somehow.
if not what is the best gun to go for to minimise damage and do an alright job - even if held by a noob biggrin

Id just like to finally get the compressor out the box, as I have had it for about three months now frown

Matt black bonnet here I go!! biggrin

By the sounds of it probably a shotgun..

Are you seriously asking on a public forum if its ok to spray a car in a driveway?

Yes he is but it's ok as he has a 13ft hedge between him and his neighbours....

3 times the height of my spray booth filters , and i bet 10 time more dense biggrin

they will do a great job, added to the constant fresh air flow i bet it will easily meet the REGS tongue out
