    How many of the white cans did you use, and how much of the car did you paint?

    You got the lights for the 165 bar?

    Jay Dee, would you think it a particularly bad idea to spray a whole car white with cans? Did you use primer and clear? Even if I sell mine, tidy white looks better than rooted blue haha...Paint massively changes value of a car

    Not at all, My father and myself just finished spraying his datsun 260z with cans...turned out awesome seriously looks like a 2pac job....roof was alittle tricky...and yep we did everything like that, started with spray bog sanded, primed, sanded, sprayed and then clear...will get a pic of it next time i go around.

    For you, i would just sand back the clear coat, scruff it up alittle...and spray right over that (use primer and everything else tho obviously) just need a steady hand and even strokes :p

    Practice makes perfect!


    P.S Corona Lights are payed for!!! should be here soon!!!!! :eek:

    A pic of the datsun would be awesome, what colour? Would colours other than white work well? Iv seen cars done that look real patchy and the strokes are obvious...Id LOVE to do a real deep blue if it would be possible, as the car is blue...The paint on the roof and bonnet will have to come off as it is thin and shit and un even, and I have a few little dents to fill, doesnt look as good as that sig pic haha...
