Who can paint my 240 for less than 500 bucks?

Do the roller job :tup:

Apparently its more durable than regular paint

No offense but if it would look really good if you just put some clear on and wet sanded it then why not do it…

Thats kind of like saying this car is really fast…while having no motor in it.

you do realize we can only do 2 coats a day, and it takes like 8 coats?

so i can start on the weekend. It’s not like i don’ have anything else to drive.

Get a cheap paint gun or borrow someones. I just painted my beater gloss white with the same paint through a gun. The paint goes on real even and you don’t have to wet sand until your done laying all of the coats down. It saves a ton of time and hassle.

^
i have a gravity feed, and siphon hvlp gun you can use

oh i thought u traded the STI and Elise strait up for the 240

OK. I’m going to buy the stuff tonight. I’ll probably start it on thursday. should i buy a particualr brand of sandpaper or thinner or brushes or something? I should probably get a bunch of bright shop lights, huh?

i would get decent brushes and rollers…3m sand paper is the norm

do a search on honda tech before you start
