its all about what i like. not what everyone else has. i dont see any two tones in my area by the way. and i love it. i cant decide on the scheme though. its gonna be tuff.
2 tones are becoming so over done now a days! but they do look good!
spraying is one thing, properly mixing the paints activators, knowing when to apply and reapply , know where and when to blend..... theres alot into it, but once you do it once , you kind of get the hang of it. Im not saying painting is easy, but your right, its alot easier than most people think. The wetsand and buff is the most labor intensive (post prepping). Take your time , keep the dust down and fumes out of your lungs..youll be good to go!!
so is the sn95 axle going on? does that mean 5 lug?
im deff gonna do a 2 tone scheme. im thinking either silver and blue or silver and black kinda like these.
which one do you guys think looks the best?
This is f'n HOT! I'm a sucker for deep blue mustangs, but thats a two tone job like I've never seen.
Anyway, glad to see your making progress man. Do you have any kind of timeline for completion?
sure do man. i hope to be done with it by mid summer. paint and all.
well i got the fuel lines in tonight. that was a pain in my butt. like to have never got them behind the damn strut and that one brake line.
you move stuff so fast its nuts. what color did you decide on?
well i decided on silver but after trying it ive learned its one of the hardest colors to lay down. a pro also told me that today. the metallics in it lay in different directions and its hard to be consitant with silvers and light golds. so im back to the drawing board on it i guess. unless i can get good at spraying silver come paint time.
if i cant get the hang of it im gonna base/clear it in black and single stage black all my jambs and under the hood. im gonna practice with the silver over the next few days and see what i can come up with though.
any metallic are going to lay down like that. black if this is truly your first time painting a car you better be ready to spent alot of time wet sanding. and you better make sure the body is flawless...black will show anything and everything.
the first truck i paint ( 85 302 ranger ) we went with a really dark grey that mis well of been black. only in direct sunlight could you see it was grey and i think between me and my dad we had about 10 hours in wet sanding on it.
just be prepared to spend alot of time on it....after all the work your doing don't skimp on it.
