thanks man
are you looking to spray it with a can or a paint gun?

[mustangmatt5]

with a can most likely

[Gerbig]

just go to autozone or advanced and pick you up some duplicolor perfect match paint. It's supposed to be touch up paint for scratches but i use it on my exterior painting. just pick the color you want

Sand, clean, prime, wet-sand, paint, buff.

You can also clear coat if you want.

Sand, clean, prime, wet-sand, paint, clear, wet-sand, clear, buff.

[Gerbig]

haha ive never done all that i just sand clean paint paint clear

[Mr. Red Pony]

I don't like the orange peel effect, so I go into more detail.

[Rich J]

Me too, well actually I clean, sand, clean, primer, paint, clear, done.

[Gerbig]

none of my work has ever peeled but that may happen

[Rich J]

hmm true, i would take the extra steps because its something thats always out in the weather, idk if you drive the car in the rain, snow, or whatever but those extra steps would be good insurance.

[Gerbig]

true. yeah i drive my car in all weather unfortunately i cannot afford a dd lol

[Mr. Red Pony]

I didn't mean that it would peel off. Orange peel is the texture it makes if you have too much spray.

[Gerbig]

oh yeah that has happened to me before

Lol its ok, neither can I. Gotta stock up on the sand bags for the trunk for this years new england winter.

[Mr. Red Pony]

Lol, I just have to prepare for a few days of snow. And when it snows here, everything stops. No one knows what to do with it...

im glad my winters down here arent as bad up there. luckily my dad bought a newer truck this year and in winter i dont drive much with sally for obvious reasons so he lets me use his old 94 f150

Well I plan on using the jeep for the heavy snow storms. Don't got a garage to park the stang in for those storms either goin to have to go outside every so often during the really heavy storms to clean the top off. But with a little bit of snow on the ground I gotta use the stang. But I can assure all of you I will use it as little as possible.
