I am planning to paint some parts of my car in the future. Like the front and rear bumper, and the fenders. But before I do so, I would like some advice, tips, websites, etc.
I am going to practice on various body panels from a junkyard before I actually do my car. Maybe after a few months when I think i'm pretty good, i'll start on my car. Some of you may think that I shouldn't even try and leave it to the professionals. But everyone starts somewhere, and you can't get good without practice.
If anyone has any advice that would be greatly appreciated. I've done a few searches between forums, but I couldn't find specifics. They were all scattered. Like how to prep the body, spray gun to use, paint, how many coats, etc.
