Yellow & White is the primer? Or are you painting it white? If not, what color?



Nice Miata in the background!

Save as .3gp to play. Its amusing.

KoiHoshi 10-11-2005 04:06 PM

Nice paint job! I do airbrushing and what not. I spray down my work bench and then wipe it down so there is moisture to make sure no dusts gets on the stuff, hit the ceiling and the walls, works great, it's very possible to get out a NICE paint job without a booth, and your paint job looks like it's well on the way to looking fiiiiiiiine! Can't wait to see the finished results!

inanimate_object 10-11-2005 04:41 PM

Cool, it's gonna match the other one!

Yeah I thoroughly clean out the garage, hose out the floor, wet everything else, and then keep the fans going for ventilation. Works good.





Yep gona be matching minis.

KoiHoshi 10-11-2005 05:38 PM

I wont even get into the possibility of a explosion using regular old fans from walmart to exaust paint fumes



I have this customer who painted his full size pickup in his backyard, not even in the garage, it actually came out pretty clean minus the large bugs stuck to it here and there

I have matching set of NEMA 4 rated lights!(Explosion proof)Except they shorted out in a oil barge when the factory forgot the O rings.I am lucky most of the oil was out.Couldve been as nasty as your dump , I mean garage being blown up.

Well actually the aluminum is kinda melted cause of the arcing but I think they still work https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif

But then again I see you have the safety light hanging on the wall so your cool.
