Paint it yourself Jordan! Painting is easy as! Get a air compressor and a cheap gun and your set!

And what you mean you cut the rust out of it? 1000s dont rust!

Is this a result of Mikes nestolga night threads on 1200.com? I know he was real dirty about you making it a burnout car.

You should try and get the undercoat as perfect as possible. Once you paint it thats it. if it looks bad in primer, it will look heaps worse in top coat.

Grab a rattlecan of spray putty and one of primer, some wet and dry and a sanding block.

Spray over the bogged areas with the putty and let it dry for a couple of days. block it back. If you expose bare metal or bog, primer it then putty it again.

When I paint a car I give it all a coat of putty and block it back smooth to remove all the little imperfections, then undercoat again.

What color are you painting it?
