:lol: i think ima do it
|
how much is the paint going to cost you
|
I dont know if your prepared to know how much its gonna cost
Ill take it right off the invoice: 1 Pint of SEM Mandarin Candy Concentrate- 47.74 3 Quarts of Coarse Metallic Silver - 134.61 2 Quarts of Deep Black - 61.15 5 Liter Clear/2.5liter Hardener kit - 184.72 I get a 10% discount since im going to school for it, so the final cost for all the paint materials is: $415.27 I think im going to need a bit more clear though since im going to wetsand and reclear it after paint. Usually you do that after you spray candy's. SO it may jump up 30-50 bucks or so. Maybe not. |
good work, sub'd
|
get some summit white for a rear lip! :D
|
^lol YOU!

Gald to see someone spending some money on some nice materials. Although I spent a lil more cause more colors LOL. I like the color your choosing. Orange is my fav color. We have the same plan for my girls Balt as well.
Also forgot to ask. You gonna shave off the antenna as well? I did the same thing with the trunk on mine and shaved the anttena off too and I think it looks super clean. |
Love to see people doing work on their cars like this. In for the project

What kind of paint are you buying for that price??? My PPG DBC Victory Red is over $110 a quart with 10% off student discount.
Also from the looks of it I take it your repainting the whole car a two tone? Didn't really see the other threads you talked about this in.

from $30 to thousands. My household spray guns consist of 2 harbor freight primer guns for $50, and a $115 Sharp Finex. Primer guns can be cheap, because primer always has to be sanded. So it can chunk and glob out and have all the texture in the world, as long as the paint makes it on the panel, you can work with the rest. Basecoat/clearcoat guns range in quality and what there made out of. They difference is how they spray, the fan pattern, the air pressure needed to get the proper spray, like HVLP guns (High Velocity Low Pressure), and just how well the gun atomizes the paint (how fine and evenly it breaks each paint droplet into a fine mist) For your average stuff, a $100 sharp finex will work and spray just perfect. If your going into business for this stuff, and your finish matching and blending metallics and shit you may want like a $600 Sata. Or a few of them.
I made the mistake of buying a 1.0 instead of a 1.2 and their tip kits cost $250. Expensive mistake. lol. |
subd very interested to see how it comes out

SataJet RP FTW :cssNET: I made the mistake of buying a 1.0 instead of a 1.2 and their tip kits cost $250. Expensive mistake. lol. And Sata is nice, Thats what we spray with in class. and damn thats an expensive tip lol. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y52...instripe-1.jpg My buddy did his blazer with the same orange candy over silver, he did it a bit darker then i wanna do mine in the black he sprayed gold and 2 coats of orange. You can see the effect it gives in the black, but he sprayed alot of gold and orange and it turns the panel a shade of brown, so I wouldnt use nearly as much: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y52...305000914a.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y52...0305000913.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y52...0304001125.jpg
