ok i just got home from painting my 92 honda accord./
i used vivid blue for the main coat and black crystal aka PXR on the hood.
let me know what you guys think of it

 

dont like the black on the hood, but props for doing it yourself

 

moar?

 

Is the roof going to be black too? That might help it pop a bit.

 

Bump for actually taking the time to take all of the molding, lights, door handles ect. out before spraying instead of another 'tape and spray'

I get soo sick of seeing that crap where i live.

more info on the paint?
Single stage, Basecoat clearcoat? Brand?

Are you going to cut and polish when it's done?


Good job so far!

 

thanks.
I used basecoat clear coat of course.
paint wise i used PPG OMNI products since i was doing a overall
omni 2k primer surfacer, omni 2k sealer and omni quick clear

honestly i really dont need to sand and buff it. it came out very clean. no runs no bugs and min orange peel. and very lil dirt. but only in the roof and the heed
but im going to anyways jto get the best look out of the paintjob
i already wetsanded it. i just used 2000 grit and it took me about a hour to do the whole car. havent buffed it though.
will post more pics after i reassemble it all and have it ready for the road.
Also customized the interior.
but with the hood im just gonna keep it like it is. i dont plan on painting the roof or the trunk.

but here's a question. think i should keep the side moldings blue or should i paint them black? which would flow better

 

I say keep the moldongs blue but that's just me. Paint looks good.
