Are you storing your BMW for winter?

[Rowleym]

Well I'm removal all the trust? I'm just not painting the door jams basically. Not bringing it to bare either. Well not at all spots. Just scuffing the primer and respraying with rattle can(bought the paint before I found out my dad has multiple paint guns and lots of experience painting cars) and then spraying a real clear coat.

Just have your dad paint it.

That reads like something a spammer would post.

I tried to type this while also trying to pay attention to my calc class. Long story short I spend more time on the forums than I do with calc. It's a bad thing.

If I were you, I'd ditch the spray cans. Having owned a car that was rattle canned, the paint didn't last 6 months with prep. Every time I went through the car wash, it would flake off. Take the time and do it somewhat decently even if you don't want a show quality job, especially if your father is an experienced painter. I think it would be better than having to keep respraying spots when they fall apart.

[Brian.]

Agreed.

[Rowleym]

Doesn't the clear coat make all the difference? I was going to use professional clear coat.

Prep work makes the difference. Using quality materials helps a lot as well.

Prep work makes the difference. Using quality materials helps a lot as well. Do it right the first time or don't do it at all.

This. Spraypaint looks "ok" at best, for a week, MAYBE. Then it falls to shambles. A clear coat won't do shit to spray paint. Do it right. Hell, if your dad doesn't want to paint it, I've got a full car paint booth. I'll spray it for you. But that costs $$

[Rowleym]

Haha. I guess I might just return my paint and oreilys and see what they say.

Do it fag. Stephen works there, So does Eric Feder. As long as it's unopened and you have a receipt you should be good.

get the good paint and clear coat.

I only remember one of the brands I used. it was transtar I believe. Both of the paints came from Britain/Europe

[Rowleym]

Haha I know they do. I go there all the damn time. But thats kind of the reason I don't want to return it. But I guess I will.

[TurboJake]

Nope! Dead E30 smack dab in the middle of the garage too. Need to move it to the back so I can park in it.
