try and close it off from bugs etc too.
they love getting themselves stuck in the paint, and ruining your fun.
thanks guys.

Make sure the area your spraying it in is spotless. If your doing it in your garage or shed hose down the floor to stop dust being kicked up when your spraying. Check your spray fan, and paint feed and air pressure on an old piece of tin or something.
Clean the surface!!
^ with this
Also make sure everywhere is masked off properly, 2 pack will stick to everything and is a pain to get off
thanks guys
I can vouch for that lol.
wax on and wax off with the grease remover. make sure you wax off really well.
and a tack rag is useful too for taking stuff off the paint between coats.
car got painted, came out pretty good, just needs a buff, but im happy with paying $200 for materials and doing it ourselves instead of paying $800 for someone else to do it.
