Re: 1965 LWB Stepside Build

I was told once...if you want to learn how to paint body panels...go to the junkyard and buy a cheaper fender...and paint it. I am not great at painting, but I am pretty good wet sanding and polishing. Most flaws can be wet sanded out. I've got a good gun, but rarely use it. Everything I have painted so far is either rattle can or I powder coated. I am too heavy handed with a gun. I also need a better air compressor....which will come soon. I currently am only using a 30 gallon 3.5 HP from Home Depot. I want a 5-7.5 HP 60-80 gallon Champion or Saylor Beall. Something made in the USA!
