this civic was green and somebody painted it black..
i painted the trunk and hoood flat white,,, i was gonna end up painting the whole car flat white but idk =/ opinions?
and ima rattle can it






maybe flat black with red hood top and trunk? nah idk ]= dont wanna look like a ricer although i think i do already =[[

 

why did you paint them white? why didn't you leave it black? you already rattle caned I would rattle it flat cammo green.

 

why dont you just prep it for paint and do it right so it doesn't look like ***.

 

satin olive green?

 

and i painted it bc the trunk was the original green the ugly looking green that looks blueish

 

Oh I see, Well im gonna have to agree with SeanK325 Just get her painted because you will hate the rattle job after a few months.

 

Don't rattle can it. Do it the correct way instead of doing it half ***

 

Do a $50 dollar paint job yo! Theres actually a lot of good results. Paint is all in prep. Spend like 100 bucks on supplies and do it up. You dont have to limit yourself to 50.


Read up here and do your research. Search for $50 paint job and check out what some guys this. I would def do this too if I had a cheap car I wanted to restore the paint on.

I have seen good results to with a rattle can paint job but it just requires lots wet sanding. if your willing to put in work then go for it. but I would just get it done by a pro you will like the results alot more.

 

This should be in the Honda and Acura Appearance/Cosmetic Forums section. Just saying incase it gets moved.

 

Just rattle can the hood and trunk back to black and call it good if the rest of the paint is in good condition. If you rattle can the whole car it will be a pain to take off the paint when you have enough for a real job. Unless you got a soda blaster

 

OR use paint stripper on it.

 

Ya but a little messier. Just gave an example not saying its the only thing, he can also use sandblaster, or sand the whole thing if he wants to.

 

The 50 dollar paint job is ****....I'm not saying this from an I've seen ot online...I'm saying this from an its on my car I loved it at first but 1 year down the road I regret it standpoint...I prepped everything...took of all seals lights bumpers fenders everything and then wetsanded and hit it with a cut and buff. It chips and scratches way to easy...its almost impossible to patch up spots and scratches...all around bad idea. Way too much work. Then if you decide to get a real shop to do it...it costs way more to get them to undo your mess IF they even agree to touch it. I will be repainting single stage white after taxes come back. I would get a maaco job before i ever did that again.

 

I'm confused on why this got moved to tech and isn't in appearance?

 

I have to agree with this.

 

Seen like the front hood might have some bondo..

 

save up money. pay me to paint it, professionally. =D
...thats how.

 

omg please go away
