Well.... im ordering my TRD replica wing tomorrow from erebuni, which is in need of some paint and off of that i decided why not just paint the whole car
![]() Ive had past experience painting helping my dad paint bus grills for greyhoud ( i know random), one of his best friends works for grey hound, and my dad would fix the broken grills bondo and everything, so ive had some paint applying experience. i got some dings, and fender dents, and hail damage on the hood(stupid chicago winter). and some weird paint chipping? i guess on my front bumer ill post a pic of it to show. really weird. anyway... i was just wondering teh process in which i would have to go about and the supplies i would need. i already have an air compressor, two guns, face mask, and goggles, so ill look pro ![]() Paint: im gonna be gettin paint matched, at a shop with good rep, autowerks. http://www.e-autowerks.com/index.html Paint supplies: this is where i need help, i kinda know what i need like primer, thinner, sand paper, body filler. but dont really know the specifics on what to get. anyone have a list, just a general list of what i need. then go to specific products from there. -------------------- '95 Celica ST Coupe.
