I am waiting on a few parts before I can paint my gt-four project so I decided to paint a project that kinda has been neglected. I bought this 1994 st for 700 and planned on doing a custom 4age with a trd supercharger setup, as well as removing the bodykit and getting it back to a stock look. Since the gt-four has taken up so much of my time it's just been sitting outside. However since I had the free time I thought it would be great to paint this car as a little practice before I paint the gt-four. The paint is a bench mix of viper red and renaissance red with a little metallic flake.

how much did you end up spending between tools and materials? anything special you did, like building a "paint booth" or sanding between coats or anything? one final question, how much paint did you use and how many coats did you do?
Sorry, I'm just trying to decide if this is what I should do to my car. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
