Don't prep it yourself unless you really know what you're doing, and by the looks of your post, you don't. (no offence). It is a lot of work, and I mean a lot, and preparation is one of the most important parts of painting. If the prep is done incorrectly, it can ruin the whole outcome of the makeover.

if you fuck up and then get it done buy a shop it will cost you twice as much b/c they have to fix your mistakes.
Also for me to tell you how to do body work would take me more time than I have to type that out and more sever space than VM has available! You asked for advise and we are just givin it to you. ------------------ I use to have a clean record till I bought a VR6! www.basttire.com www.rentatirecanada.com |
