Re: 1NonlyAccords Body n Paint thread

Thanks guys.yes i painted my car last year and made the 150$ DYI professional paint job thread..I was not happy with the color turn out due to improper mixing at the store,turned purple one way,blue the other.BMW blue also.

But now im going for a more traditional Knighthawk black blue pearl,honda color.
tossing all CF parts going all OEM with custom lip kit front/side and WW rear.

I have to admit I hate to see the blue go because it's rare and such a nice shade, but I can understand you're ready for something different. Progress is awesome, looking forward to updates.

your car looks sick without the fenders and hood

Have to agree, there is something cool about this:

This is very impressive.

My question though, with doing all this prep/prime/paintwork in your garage, what are you doing to keep dust particles from getting caught in the primer/paint/clear coat?

I wasn't worried about dust for primer due to it being sanded back out anyways..as for when im going to paint/clear.I make a portable PVC paint booth.with some box fans and filters.and hose down the concrete so nothing blows around/up off the ground

Nice.......definately can say you are being thorough.

If only I lived closer to GA.......you could keep the car for a month and do what you needed to do!
