Title: paint shop in south east fl Post by: HolyLandMan on April 26, 2010, 03:04:54 PM i live near ft lauderdale and currently have a black Si, but it only looks good after i wash it and it probally stays clean for a whole 10 min, and u can see every little nic and swirl on the car. im tired of trying my hardest and it still looking like crap. i was thinking of painting it red with black flakes, or just any color except black. any suggestions are welcome. but back to my point, is there anywhere near ft lauderdale where they paint cheap but good quality paint.

When I wet sand a white car for example it takes 2 coumpounds but when it is a dark color (black,blue,red) it takes 4. And it takes a while.
I will look for the system I use to show you Title: Re: paint shop in south east fl Post by: Mudneck on April 26, 2010, 08:47:03 PM Swamper you all paint at your shop? Ive got a Dually cab I need done.

Thats one thing I havent done... that is pulling the trigger on a paint gun. Title: Re: paint shop in south east fl Post by: IXIswamperIXI on April 26, 2010, 10:20:22 PM This is the system I use.

If you have light scratches start with step 3 then 4 and 5. If dont have light scratches start with 4 then 5. These videos are a short explaination of that system. Part 2 is more what you are looking for.
