first go at prep and priming

Postby Bazza J » April 11th, 2010, 12:52 pm

i just had a go at prepping and priming an old gaurd i had lying around before i had a go on the EA, i had a bit of trouble with the spray gun but i think it was just because the spray gun was too old and was almost broken. i had tried putting just thinners through the gun but it still wouldnt work.
here is a couple of pics

i had finished 2 coats of primmer before the gun stoped working and i smoothed out the primer before i took the pics.

Id love to give spray painting a go, just need to go and buy all the paint, primer, thinners, and so on.

well the spray gun dad had sitting around, and i used his old compressor, i brought 4 ltrs of primer for $50 and 4 ltrs thinners for $50, my plan is to practise abit until i get it right than ill prime the EA and do a full colour change to black
