What the heck. I'll take the responsibility for hijacking this thread.
I've also painted a lot of things other than cars and bikes:
Refrigerators, gas pumps, boats, a garden tractor, peddle cars, ice chests, radio control boats and planes, mail boxes, helmets, tool boxes, trailers, I put the 'glass fuselage together for a kit plane, but it never got back here for paint before it was sold..........and I did paint a Holiday Inn last night. LOL!
One of the jobs I turned down was body painting for a nudist colony. Have you seen the age group that goes to them? "MY" age group!.......besides, a guy could catch something!
did you get all the sleep you needed at the holiday inn ??:D yes i did turn down one job painting a old gray hound bus :3dSMILE:Quote:

But we all can lay down some color and clear but be ready to sand some more . It's all just a hobby for me no doing it for a living customer's S**k some times LOL .
