I was thinking about using water colors for my car.

SW20Racer · 03-13-2008, 08:30 PM

i rattlecanned the sw20 shortly after i got it. flat white and a flat clear to seal it and it lasted over a year without flaking, chipping, fading, or peeling.

i took my time and and it sure as hell looked better than a maaco job. i liked it so much that when i did have enough for a real paintjob i spent it on wheels&tires...

the problem usually is that someone either
a: ruins a perfectly fine paintjob or
b: does it in their front yard
