Kind of. I wouldn’t though.
Cracks will need a regular fg repair.
Fg is just a pita, you’ll have to accept it. There aren’t really any good shortcuts.
Kind of. I wouldn’t though.Dave, can I use a two part type epoxy (like pba) to repair some damage /scrapes and a little cracking on a fiberglass bed?
Not as close as I'd like to be right now. 1000 miles.A ”budget way” to paint the cowl, hummmmm.........How close are you to Oklahoma?
Do you mind a phone call from me? It’ll just take a few minutes to help you through this.Not as close as I'd like to be right now. 1000 miles.
Perhaps I should word it as second least expensive way?
Wrong thread, soon though.It's good to have you back, now how about a update on doobie or dumpy, whatever that 'going to be green' stang you got hidden away.

The best way to get a good gun is to go on eBay and buy a good used one.@Davedacarpainter, Let's say I was foolish enough to consider painting something like a decklid or fender, what would be your suggestion for a decent spray gun for a novice?
Would a Sata 5500 work?The best way to get a good gun is to go on eBay and buy a good used one.
Paint your car, clean up the gun and sell it for about what you paid for it.
It’s hard for me to recommend something from say, HF. They really are crap guns.
You get what you pay for. That’s why I recommend the eBay route and get a good gun you can turn around and sell.
Brands? Sata, iowata, some devilbiss.
That’s what I use at work, I have three of them. Mine are HVLP models. The size and type fluid cap and nozzle makes a big difference.Would a Sata 5500 work?
Sharpe makes some ok guns. I still hold to my earlier advice though. In the end you end up with a decent paint job and get your money back on the gunI'm a total novice so keep that in mind, but I have successfully painted hoods, fenders , bumpers , ground effects etc.
I've gotten some really good results using a Finex Sharpe FX3000 w/1.4 tip , used for basecoat and clear.
Like I said just a hobbyist but for the money I can't complain.
