Thread: Painting sequence???

oops here's the pic

Yeah see thing I like about it is that it's semi gloss. I don't like the complete flat look. But when I say fade I hear that it does both. I hear it all fades and then some spots more than others like the hood and roof do. If you keep it parked in the garage and out of the rain then I don't see you having a problem. The stuff is really strong but just fades that's all. That is the ONLY thing keeping me from using it now. I was going to use the BB or semi gloss and paint the truck and then tape out flames and do gloss black flames over it but then heard about the fading and decided not to. I hear the high gloss fades to. Also another thing to think about. If you go cheap on paint then it doesn't last long. That paint probably will last about 3 years and then will start looking like crap. That is why people on here like HOTRODPAINT and SprayTech say to go with expensive paint and it will last about 5 years or more. So it all depends. But then again you can just scuff that paint up when it looks bad and do another coat over it too.
Did you check out the 55 Chevy on Hotrodders.com? It is awsome, looks good with all the chrome wheels, grill, bumpers and the chrome trim down the side.

yes his car is definitely sweet. Ok well I will be only driving the car in the summers and even when parked at home outside it'll be in the shade. When it's parked for long it will be inside at work with a cover most likely. I think I will go with either blitz or medium gloss. I'll buy a little of both and practice both on an old camaro hood I got from a guy at work then decide. thanks a lot!

No problem. Let me know how that medium gloss looks if you decide to do that. I want to see how much of a difference it is.
