interior painting?

ZoomZoomMFer · August 21st, 2008, 11:32 PM

ok guys got a question.... i plan on painting the common interior panels in my car red... what would look better, a high gloss red or a matte or red "aluminum" finish, like the silver in my 98?

Youngin · August 21st, 2008, 11:33 PM

candy apple!

id say gloss

Dansby · August 21st, 2008, 11:35 PM

Gloss man. Make the biotch shine!

ZoomZoomMFer · August 21st, 2008, 11:41 PM

but my problem is... im doing this myself, so how would i get a nice gloss out of these pieces?

Youngin · August 22nd, 2008, 12:06 AM

spray it!

ZoomZoomMFer · August 22nd, 2008, 12:13 AM

with what?

whitemustang02 · August 22nd, 2008, 12:27 AM

did you end up getting a paint gun or are you just going to rattle can this.

ZoomZoomMFer · August 22nd, 2008, 12:29 AM

thats what im trying to decide... i wanna get a paint gun, but dont wanna spend the money on it... but it would look so much better that way

Dansby · August 22nd, 2008, 12:34 AM

Think of it like this, it could be an investment. Buy the gun, practice, get good, do yours, then make money doing others.

whitemustang02 · August 22nd, 2008, 12:35 AM

thats a tough call man. the paint gun will look better but will cost more.
but the rattle can can still look god if done well and with a nice coat or 2 of clear on it.

hell if you were up here i would let you barrow the paint gun i have.

but if you do buy a paint gun you cold do work for other people and maybe end up having it pay for it self.

ZoomZoomMFer · August 22nd, 2008, 09:51 AM

thats true...

98stangv6 · August 22nd, 2008, 11:45 AM

This is mine, its done with a rattle can

graystang01 · August 22nd, 2008, 12:46 PM

i wish i could do that to my car...
but id hafta go with gray

whitemustang02 · August 22nd, 2008, 01:12 PM

hay 98silver i know you said the usual but what parts exactly are you think of painting. because that may make a difference in weather it would be worth going with the paint gun or not.

ZoomZoomMFer · August 22nd, 2008, 02:16 PM

center dash bezel, shifter bezel, door bezels, gauge bezel

AndrewA. · August 22nd, 2008, 02:37 PM

Thats not going with the all black theme..i say leave it stock are get the bulliit peices.

goren813 · August 22nd, 2008, 03:12 PM

I've done them all red with rattle... looks fine, just sand it smooth like silk then get nice even spread of color topped with clear.

ZoomZoomMFer · August 22nd, 2008, 04:38 PM

where can i get the bullitt pieces?

ok for that i would definitaly go with the paint gun, for that many big pieces.

98stangv6 · August 22nd, 2008, 05:08 PM

why waste the money for the paint gun if you dont really need it. I painted all my bezels, and the whole top part of my interior black with rattle cans.
