Editing Cheapo paint job

{{youcanedit}}

You get what you pay for.

Hotrodding forums frequently witness posts by hotrodders endorsing various (and numerous) "cheapo" methods of painting a vehicle.

The overwhelming consensus of body professionals and experienced hotrodders is that, in most cases, "Cheapo" paint jobs simply aren't worthwhile. There are many clever and reasonable ways to save money while building a hot rod, and, overall, aggressively scrimping on the paint job does not seem to be among them. While "Cheapo" jobs may be good for "Cheapo" vehicles (beaters, work or farm vehicles, "practice" cars for learning painting, etc.), they aren't good for vehicles in which you have invested significant amounts of time, money, and effort.

The complexities of the various painting products and application methods can make it difficult for an amateur to understand why scrimping on a paint job is, ultimately, not a wise decision. So, this article has been started in an effort to diminish those complexities. If you are an auto body professional, an experienced hotrodder, or simply someone with good information on the realities of the "Cheapo" paint job, please feel free to add to this article.

there are several ways to go about painting a car. generally you would wnat to fix your dents first using plastic filler finishing them to a 180 scratch. then prime your body work, andif the car needs it a coat over the whole car. make sure that the car is appropriately sanded, paint is all in the prep. after blocking your primer with 320, take your sanding scratches your with 400 grit paper. Now for the painting. You would now want to seal the car. sealer keeps your body work seprate from your paint. and helps it to last longer. Now applying the paint try to spray even coats with 50% overlaps. Watch what your doing and dont be afraid to make a mistake. cut and buff after finsihed
