He's actually nowhere near Brighton, he's in Newhaven. I think he just says Brighton 'cos it's the nearest place that everyone know where it is. Either that or he likes the ghey image associated with Brighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 how hard is it to spray? clear some room around car, mask windows and wheels. fill up your paint gun and press button on spray gun and move in circles till you get an even coat of paint. if you get any runs it means you stayed in 1 place too long. wipe with a rag and proceed to spray over affected area. leave for a couple of hours to dry peel off masking tape and tou have a show worthy supra. keep out of them bus lanes for a few days as the red chippings can do damage to new paint. would it be possible to spray car in gold metalic oil based INK. work at a printers and we do all special types of ink. its oil based so just might need some turps mixing in to thin it down. just an idea ps would it be any cheaper if the person getting car done came down and helped with prepping and rubbing down ya cant beat a good rub down have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Why are we still painting cars anyway? Here we are in the 21st century using a method of covering metal that's been around for what 70 years at least? Look at the finish on a Coke can, absolutely perfect, consistant results and obviously done for next to nothing cost-wise. Why can't something like that be achieved with car body panels?
