why are you still here... we have all heard that you don't like the 50 dollar job. we get it. now shut up. if you don't like it then don't comment on it. just makes you look like a post *****. some people like myself will paint certain projects with rusto or some cheap paint cus its cheap and its a project that we don't really care to much about the looks or body.

good example is a a rock crawler project of mine. i take it out in the woods every other weekend so why would i spend 200 on auto paint when i can get 2 or 3 qts of rusto for 8 bucks a piece. same with a 93 civic cx hatch im painting now. i dont care about the body. i would rather use the 150 bucks i save and spend it on something else to help the car go faster.

so it just matters what your painting and what its for. if the guy wants to paint a car with rusto let him. does it really bother you that much that people are doing this paint job? cus it sure seems to me that you are getting really butt hurt about people spraying their cars with something cheap. especially when it looks half decent.

cleve

then show us where you can get these prices??? cus 50 bucks is different then 100 plus. also 50 dollars is a lot of gas now a days. we don't all have money flying out our asses...

oh dont get me wrong, i have no issue with painting a rock crawler in rustoleum when its only gona get destroyed a weekend later, thats completely understandable. What annoys the ever living **** out of me is the people who try to pass it off as "professional" or "quality" paint jobs. Not only does it drag down the community as a whole, but its just plain stupid and shows a complete disregard for any sort of quality and spreads mis-information to people on what should otherwise be a sub forum for actual quality advice regarding painting a car properly.

If this annoys the ever living **** out of YOU then stop reading in the Threads that SAY $50 dollar paint job OR Rustoleum!

BTW There doing $50 Rustoleum Paint jobs in the Mustang forums too...

whatever keep telling yourself that your gay 50 dollar paintjob looks good.
The reason people like us keep going into these threads is to tell people the facts.

so your justification is cause you saw it a on a mustang forum lol
yeah cause people who drive mustangs really know whats up haha

its pretty annoying that when I go into the PAINT/BODY section it is a bunch of gay rustoleum jobs

MrHappypants

Hey maybe you should have read the thread so you could keep up with whats going on >> Spawn said he should have bought a Mustang << That is why Isaid they have $50 paint jobs in the mustang forums...

BTW Just because your $50 paint job didnt come out the way you wanted it dont mean you have the right to hate on everyone else!!!


"The reason people like us keep going into these threads is to tell people the facts."

WTF Facts have you posted about this? Other then you dislike rustoleum??

ej1 rep

Well my 50 paint job came out perfect, but its still shitty paint. Its probaly hard for people like you too understand.

FACT your going to be putting in a **** ton of labor. More than enough you to go to work and make the extra 100 dollars for a single stage paint.

FACT I hope you like sanding because your going to being doing a ton of it so it doesnt have orange peel

FACT have fun running around your car with a paint rollar trying to get every run

Im not saying dont try it if really really want to do it, imm just giving a heads up on what your in for.

that and the fact that it has no uv protection or weather protection whatsoever like automotive paint does, so in a year the car is gona look like **** and everyone will be going "wow your clear coat faded fast"

MrHappypants

These our all good FACTS!! BUT Lol... Orange peel seems to be more from the Mix of the paint you use.. I had little to no Orange peel when i did my car >< then again I sprayed the paint soo that might have had something to do with it..

My car looks ok an i still havnt sanded it ><

Single stage paint! You need a Gun/Compressor/Paint Booth for this witch pushes up your project in the 400 to 500 bucks > Thats a turbo kit allmost </ More then I payed for the car Lol

Lol what clear coat this is rustoleum!

Guys I really dont know why your Flaming the thread Its cheap mail boxs paint.. We all know its not going to have a Showroom finsh or last forever..

This is funny watching the "h-t know it alls" get their panties in a wad over some budget rusto paint jobs...com'n people, do you really have such a shitty life that you browse the paint and body section on h-t looking for people who dont do what you do, or dont paint their cars "the right way". if the paint job turns out shitty..so be it, it was their decision. ever heard the expression live and learn. this thread wasnt made for people to criticize...the op wanted to know the proper mix ratio...5%-15% mineral sprits mixed with rusto, just mess around with that ratio until its to your liking
