I need too touch up a few spots on my Red Del sol 1994 si, and I was wondering you guys have any knowledge about how to paint a car at home and make it pretty, what can i buy at the store that matches well and how many clear coats ETC. if you have any ideas let e know thanks a bunch.

 

are honda a enamel or laqcuer?

 

just to tell u it wont turn out pretty if its ur first attempt

best bet is to buy some touch up paint from honda, gently sand with fine grit paper and apply a couple even coats and seal with some clear coat

that is if ur just talkin about lil touch up spots

if u need to paint a large portion, find a paint gun...best and imo easiest way to get good results

same idea, sand down as much as needed with fine grit, unless ur goin fairly deep, which in that case u can use bigger grit and work ur way to fine as u get closer to the desired depth

then tape ur car off and have at it with smooth even sprays, and let dry and go over with clear coat and ur good

 

i go to school for painting n body work. dont do it ur self..not worth it. best advice go to maaco..very cheap

 

isnt maaco shitty?

theyre basic service is very shitty.. but if you get a high quality job there it should be okay but then its not cheap anymore and they are VERY expensive.
