How's it more of a bitch than any other color? Even if you don't do the engine bay, it'll look okay.

 

because i have to sand the entire car or it will show through

 

Well, I should hope you sand the entire car :chuckles:. Don't you have to do that anyways to get the clear coat off :dunno:?

 

i meant have to sand off all the black

 

you are supposed to sand the entire car.. well put it this way my color is called blaze crystal red pearl.. and then we added a little bit of red pearl.. with base, clear reducer, hardener, enhancer, and house of kolor pearl. i had 550 in paint and that was at cost paint is not cheap.. also if you are at all picky put out the extra cash and pay someone to do it.. the money , time, effort, aggrovation, and feeling of dispare you have when you realize that its gona cost you more to pay someone to fix your f -up plus all the money u put out to f- it up yourself

 

eh, ill just leave it black for now, as long as the car is still making me money, im happy with it(i have to drive for my job)

 

Sorry to ruin your plans , but you'll thank us in the long run. It is really hard to paint an entire car and I'm not speaking from experience, I just know how hard it was for a small part, I can't imagine how pissed off I'd be doing the whole car.

 

probally a good choice after you color change its hard to just go drive it with out worry.. oh yea how far away is charles town from princton wv my parents just moved there my dad got a job with cole motor sports,, when i vist this summer we will have to hook up and compare sols

 

i had already planned to put off painting it anytime soon, so you didnt ruin anything

besides, i still have to figure out how to use our paint gun before i attempt to even point it at my sol...

Try to ignore the car, and pay attention to the color it's wearing. The pic doesn't show it as well as I'd like, but it's the best I could find. It's like a really dark turquoise...like my cypress green with more blue added.
