jackso11 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 has anybody seen this before? Seems quite popular on american forums. Don't think I would do anything like this to my sup but if anyone has any track cars or sheapo project cars it looks really good?! http://www.rickwrench.com/index79master.htm?http://www.rickwrench.com/50dollarpaint.html here is another one, looks a bit orange peely in black but I am guessing a cut polish should sort that out... http://www.noswirls.com/forums/showthread.php?t=597 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev_A Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Seen this years ago, looks smart for a roller job, alot of hassle though I bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Yeah on other sites it says it is done in hours but that guy seems to do it over several weeks with loads of coats to get that finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev_A Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 And just look at the damage a simple stone chip causes, it's more of a stone chunk!! That paint is (IMO) far too soft for automotive use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Thats how you do old skool paint jobs, rust prevention paint, brush it on, lots or brush lines etc, sand it smooth and buff it up. Im doing mine in hammerite satin, looks sweet and cant see the spray lines either:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Looks like more hassle than its worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I have 15 litres of B&Q magnolia gloss for sale, and a rather mouse eaten roller. Offers invited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackso11 Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 I think this looks like a really good method for anyone with a project car, like an old beaten up looking mini or something like that. Wouldn't let anyone who paints like this near my supra though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
