Those small HF guns are not bad for the money. I have painted fenders, trunks, spoilers, helmets, etc.... qnd it never missed a beat. Just clean them really good.

[HECDOGGIE]

onjacks: Did you use that small touch up gun for clear as well ?
I am thinking of buying that small gun to paint my engine bay / 2 stage ..thoughts?

BAB for sure!

Great build thread!

Have you seen the Ultra Sonic Blue from Lexus?

Thanks. My last car was sonic blue

no prob. As long as the proper steps are done for painting it will turn out nice. It gives you stuff to do while saving lol.

If you cut corners and get lazy You will always see it in the end.

Cool, I've gotta get me an air compressor but I could start hand sanding the small areas I need to fix right?

Not much more I can do till I get the rear end powdercoated, new k member, coilovers, master cylinder, fuel cell etc. I will prob paint the cage nex. Just have to get the rear window pulled first. I may do some tin work too in the rear. Money saving time

I hear ya. I've gotta get Christmas out of the way and I'm back on it. You've inspired me to do the engine bay and the underneath side of my car instead of taking to my buddy and paying him to do it. I may ask some questions along the way if you don't mind. I went and bought some metal glaze and stuff so I could fix a few dents as well as smooth the quarter panels where they got un even from James rolling the fenders.

Caulk tube style, 3m seam sealer, my local Oreilly's carried 2 different 3m variations. I've got to replace some cracked/dried stuff on my ram to hopefully kill a water leak. And as stated above, it's pretty dang high for a tube of shit. Also got a can of 3m General Purpose Cleaner to clean with before application. It has a lot of other good cleaning uses too.

[naynay]

thanks, thats what i was wondering, was it caulk, brush/roll on, or spray

[onjacks]

3m seam sealer . Some Oriellys have it in the back. Or English color in Fort Worth. It's not cheap $30 for a caulk tube of it.

[naynay]

what seam sealer did you use? that was the question before the trolls showed up

[onjacks]

I was gonna bedliner spray (raptor liner) under the car but to many tight spaces to spray. It would also be a bitch later if any more chassis work needed to be done. Don't put plasti dip under a car ! That's not what it's for.

[jason07]

Pretty sure it's plasti-dip, you can power wash it and it comes in a bunch of colors. They are even doing whole cars! You should check out dipyourcar.com, Rodney.

trust me, Scott is the plasti dip king. He has forgotten more than you will even learn about plasti dip.
