All completed painting, finished with the body shell today. not sounding boastfull here just thrilled with the results. it all came out excellent!

4 coats base/4 coats clear. plenty of clear so no worries at wet sanding. I say 4 coats base white, probably 3 coats to a pro as my first coat was light and not covering the primer. the clear is 4 good strong coats though.

so not only folks here, but I googled painting white and all said painting white is the most difficult! I can see why some would, but I had zero issues spraying the cameo white. zero runs, overlapping was not a problem, even color coat. just watch for the wetting as you go and I found it no problem.

anyhoot, so happy to have the paint complete. from here forward assembling the car etc is the part I enjoy. bought the car in 2015, what a journey. new quarters, lots of rust repair and more. did 100% myself.

more pics. was a blast painting it.

forgive me, few more pics post de masking. i'm a happy camper.

for me was a bit nerve wracking due to cost of all "liquids" and sure didnt want it to be in waste!

now i kinda want a paint another car ha ha. learned a ton and really got the hang of it this time. fun stuff. 61 and still havin fun with it.

thanks to all the help from folks here.

Looks great! Congrats.

looks great glad your having a good time with it, the only thing i can say for sure about white is it is one of the hardest colors to panel paint (meaning paint the fender bolt it on and its a dead match) think new car collision work ,but it is the easiest to blend i bet you could be 3 shades off and get away with a blend on white it is very forgiving that way.What part of KS are you from i also live in the sunflower state??
