There was also a very dark reddish color on the caddys called "Black Cherry". I've used it on a few jobs, and it looks pretty good.

It would look similar to the color on the top of this car.

How about a medium purple which is close in color to the pearl when it lights up? Be sure to match it to the actual color. Don't just guess, because it could be more blueish or more redish.

Try candy purple over House of Kolors black pearl. Really dark with very rich deep purple overtones.

I'm not familiar with that line of paint, so I can't tell you if it's good enough quality to use on a nice project. Maybe one of the other guys can help.

Here is what I do. Wash the car down with wax and grease remover, prime the whole car withat least tow heavy coats of a two part primer, with at least thirty minutes between coats. Between full...

FMX, If you are going to guidecoat and block out a catalyzed primer, you can use 150-180 grit for prep. It beats the hell out of sanding for days to get it ready. I have no reservations about...

Matt, when doing plastic work, I trust my hands before my eyes. I sand until it feels straight, checking for either high or low spots. If it feathers out okay, that's great.

What I was referring...

Just remember....smooth is okay, but it is most important that it is straight!

The two part primers will fill most of the sand scratches as you go through to process of guide coating, blocking the...

Spray Tech, Let me say first that I agree beginning painters are better off if they stick to one brand. You have to become an amatuer chemist as you advance in this game, but I have done this using...

P.S. I still use a Dupont adhesion promoter which has always worked well for me.

The two main things you get from brand name paint are "gloss holdout" (how long it lasts before chalking out) and "color holdout" (how long it lasts before fading).

I have seen a red metallic GTO...

I've only been on this group for a couple months, but I've been one of the guys trying to help a few beginners get started painting.

I have noticed that opinions, methods, materials choice, and...
