> [@240slide](#): > > looks real good, you feel comfortable enough now to paint the whole car? yeah definetly, if anything this was much harder than thats going to be. i had one portable flood light and 2 exposed light bulbs on the ceiling, I had to hold the floodlight in one hand and the gun in the other to see how wet it was going on :hang: besides all the tight spaces and backwards angles made it really hard to get even coverage. the outside should be much better becuase im planning on renting a booth to do it in. the only problem though is that I have not even started the body work so its going to take a while before i want to paint it ---

> [@96V6Bird](#): > > stupid question: did you rattle can it or did you use a gun? I used a gun, its bc/cc in the stock color (nissan hot red code: 526) The phone pics really make it look dull and orange though, rita lets me borrow her camera but she never gives me the cord so its going to be a few days before I can give you a pic that actually represents what it looks like or better yet you could stop by and check it out, ill be around all day tommarow ---

Looks real good with a real camera, too bad you didn’t clean up the crossmember, but you can always do that later with a little soap. ---
