Progress: Corvette Zo6

Here is my Newest project
It is a Revell Corvette ZO6
I am painting it orange, using the cheap walmart spray paint.

I have put on 3 coats of paint, all of which have done inbetween 25-32 degrees F. SO dont listen to that BS about having to be in the 60s to paint

Here i go trying to post some pictures




And for the person that asked about my hair, no more dreads.

i havent seen any problems yet, but after i tried taping off every thing to paint the side vents, the black kinda ran under the tape so im not sure what im going to do about that right now, tomorow is my birthday so i wont have time to really work on it for afew days, but ill probably try to go get some primer of the same paint, and then repaint it.

But this paint works awesome, no orange peel, no nothing, i think they have some clear coat tho, i dont think they do, cuz it could be a tad bit brighter, and i dont believe in all that polishing waxing work, yes im lazy

No mods. I might put different wheels on it, but not sure yet.

Re: Progress: Corvette Zo6

Looks like there is a nice shine. I personally haven't had too much luck painting in the cold though.

Some reason, the orange looks a little weird on the car to me. Keep us posted on how the build goes.

Re: Progress: Corvette Zo6

You mean that cheap 94cent paint in a can, ColorSpray or something? I have them, lots of them, and the clear, is more of a dull-coat then a shiny coat!

Sorry that the pictures are a bit blurry, but im working on taking better pictures
