blakamin Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 lol see what happens if u dust on metallic. gonna have some funky lookin colors and transperant paint. metallics basecoat still needs to go on wet. as long as u dont drown the panel and its even you only mist it on, on the last coat of base to even the metallic out. That was what I was gettin at... didn't have the energy to explain that at the time... Dust onto a wet coat... nevermind... I'm shit with words Oh, btw, never had any complaints at kenworth usin a "dusting" technique (even with a harlequinn show-truck) wouldnt recommend "wet" metallics with acrylic. unless you've done it before/have good gun technique Matty-B will be fine and waterproof if you use an acrylic lacquer (top-coat style) as opposed to a matty-b primer or enamel (fine if you wanna sand it all off later) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treggo Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 if its a good deal then i could be keen! sounds like a mint idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtrefinishers Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 we cant really go any cheaper than we are at the mo, it is very hard to find a shop that will do a full panel and paint for around 4k there is alot of work that goes into a car time wise. but for sure we can look after you guys and gals if your after some work done. we will sometimes have offers on certian work we can give a discount on ect but it does depend on the work load and weather we have time to fit in the deals. we deal with a few car clubs and are out there to help out in any way we can and understand building a car isnt an easy thing to do . the special offers will only pop up now and again but i will post them in here when they do feel free to contact us if you want a quote or to talk bout possibilitys for your car. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
