Default painting my car by parts.

is it a good idea to buy paint my self and all the solvents, and painting my car by parts as in fenders one week doors the other exetera, and also does the rattlecan primer work good for the paint job.

Painting the parts individually is not a good idea, chances are very high that the panels will not match.

Rattlecan primer is not the best option, but it will do the job.

You want to paint the whole car all at once, like it was already posted, due to humidity at different times etc. your panels most likely wont match.

I mean, you can do it, and the colors will be close, but you will still be able to tell, there are too many variables, thats why you need to do it all at once.
