wont be the greatest paint job as im going to give it a shot :S lol

Alwaze 1 · 01-27-2012, 12:40 AM

I had a friend of mine paint my 94 ford probe this summer. He does his painting in his home garage, no paint booth. He has been doing it for many years. I learned alot. We kept the floor wet at all times, it was to keep the dust down. We did have one fly die and fall onto the roof but after the clear coat you couldn't see where it landed. The paint job turned out great. I,m sure your paint job will be just as nice. I can ask him any questions if you ever run into anything you may need an answer to.

UPNADM · 02-10-2012, 02:34 PM

Why not try the hand roll system?

It takes time, but if you got it and the patience the end result is pretty good. My builds have always been on a budget. I have sprayed in the past with hit and miss results (and a lot of overspray...ha).

I saw the $50.00 paint job on the internet and thought I would go with it... Check it out.

Here are the results from my 86...
