Thinking or giving paintin a go have a gun that i got of a lad i know he said its a good gun for starting out.
Going to stray a set of 10's how much paint do ye think ill need for 4/5 coats
And also have thoughts of wrapping a mini, i know crazy thoughts but what else do you think about when your bored but how much wrap would i want to do the full car thats if i even en up doing it
Cant paint it the way im thinking of doing it, with out crazy costs and time.
This car hasnt seen the road since 96 and when it does it wouldnt be for too offten so there wont be too much about fadding or any of that
Was sorta thinging wrap it then laqure over the wrap
I seen that on tmf it looks like the tyre machine would chip it, very cool though
Ill just paint the wheels as they will more than likely be winter wheels
Im not certain on the validity if this joey but a friend of a friend got the bonnet if his corolla carbon wrapped and had it clear coated and a few weeks down the line the laquer reacted with the wrap, dunno how but it look desperate, couldve been dodgey laquer but id look into it if i was you

just have a quick look online, dont think wrap is that bad for fading anyway and if its done by a proper shop they'l give a year or 2 guarantee on it but i think the best bet for the car is paint, wrap covers up too many bodywork sins!
