anyone do paint work?

ZoomZoomMFer · August 14th, 2008, 02:10 PM

want to have some interior pieces professionally painted... anyone know of someone who does this stuff?

JASonic · August 14th, 2008, 02:12 PM

what kind of pieces? Like the window switch's and stuff? My brother works in a paint shop up north but it would probably cost more to ship it up there then its worth.

ya like the shifter, radio and "armrest" bezels

He's up in Michigan so it probably wouldnt make sense. You ever think about getting the tools and trying it yourself? You can get a simple paint gun and stuff at Harbor Freight. I knew a guy that did that. The bastard couldnt finger paint but got real good with the gun. He finds all kinds things to paint now that he has the equipment. He said it was a very worthwhile investment.

i was thinking about getting a gun from harbor freight... i do have some paint experience (body shop in high school) but just didnt know if their stuff was any good

Im sure the "pro's" around here will say it sucks but I seen some of the stuff Jimmy painted and it looked perfect to me.

just use a vinyl spray paint, i know it sounds cheap but if the surface is prepped right it can look pretty good

heres before/after pics of the interior of my mach 1, i did it all done with spray paint, replacement carpet from wal-mart, and seat covers

just a cheap alternative
