Im taking an auto painting class at my local Boces and for my first project i put racing stripes on the hood of my 92 blazer.

How does it look?

I used regular can spray paint and masking tape and garbage bags.

Came out pretty damn straight

Would be better if it was a dodge viper. Nice uniform and straight I suppose.

Looks good, when are you gonna redo that bumper? Or is it to far gone...

should have dealt with that custom "rust" color you got going on with that bumper...


oh, and there is a reason that people dont use spray paint on cars.
you are about to learn why.

thats the idea...

if you want a nice shine on that bumper, do it like this:
start with really rough paper...say 60 grit. go at it until all the big chunks of rust are gone...
then work your way ALL the way down to, 400 grit....hell even 600 if you want extra shine.

for a satin finish on my knives, ill take it all the way to 1600 grit.
i wouldnt recommend that, as you WILL spend about 40 hours of work on that bumper going that smooth.

patience is key with this though...your hands and arms will hurt, but it will be worth it in the end.

What's this BOCES stuff? I remember poseidon mention it regarding flight school. Is it some sort of program in NY where you get to learn shit like flying planes or fixing up cars?

Yeah, they are. It's just a bad pic and its hard to tell with the crease in the hood. Dont look at the very front cause the crease ends and makes it look weird.
