Okay so here's whats going down, my car needs to get painted before winter
... I have no garage, no tools, no spray guns, and barely no (extra) money!
I was reading through some pages on the internet about painting your car with the roller method. This got me interested and began researching about it and reading comments. I am now from tonight, on a mission to paint my car...
I will keep in touch with everyone here on the lumina forum as my progress grows! expect lots of pictures! And maybe this method is for you. Let me be the one to test it for you!
The list of materials will be as followed (Average cost $50):
- 1 Gal Acrylic-Enamel Paint (Rustoleum Professional Protective Enamel, Tremclad)
- 1 Gal 100% Mineral Spirits (Available at some Sears, also at Advance Auto Parts)
- 4 4'' Ultra-smooth foam rollers
- 80/100/200/600/800/1000 grit sandpaper
Hopefully sometime in the next week I will get started... Im going to fundraise for the money to buy the materials through my friends (they all want it to be painted
). Its really ugly I will put original pics. up when I start.
Until Then,

P.s. - Feel free to ask about it, and if I havent gotten back to you fine people in this forum within a week, let me know! and I'll try to speed things up. Oh!, and im not sure what color I want I havent looked at my selection ,but my girlfriend wants it a nice bright green, and I want it a nice midnight blue? No idea!
