CrimsonRockett,

Do you know what color code that is for the Z33, that is one sexy color.

NINJASPY · 12-01-2009, 03:11 PM

I am looking to paint some side skirts and valences, in black kh3. Wondering if any gloss black would match "good enough" lol.
Anyone know any good info on selecting a gun? Harbor freight? Pressure Regulator?
Compressor? I have 3 gallon compressor, about 1.5hp. I also have a graco high pressure paint gun for house paint, but its 1000-2000psi?!?
How about the dupont paint at kragens at 25bucks a quart? is it one stage? Need flex additive?

Stock purple paint from my 1995 240sx

killer240 · 12-03-2009, 01:02 PM

i didnt know where to post this.
but how many quarts of paint do you need to paint your interior and engine bay?
yea it depends how many coats you wana shoot.
but how many coats do you recomend? is 2 coats enough? so a quart is enough to paint engine bay and S13 fastback interior?

NINJASPY · 12-03-2009, 10:34 PM

usually 2+ coats from what I have read. One thin coat to get it tacky, one semi-thick coat to cover and wetsand. Don't forget about clear

A lot depends on if you are painting under the carpet/panels, headliner, dash etc etc.

Depending on cost of paint, I would just get a full gallon and paint the underside of hood, inside of trunk and trunk door, and what you mentioned.

tacotacotaco · 12-03-2009, 11:51 PM

color code APF02
Angry Panda Fabrication special sauce

killer240 · 12-04-2009, 12:28 AM

*hOngsterr* · 12-04-2009, 12:56 PM

I think it would work. If I were to put it on my car, I would tone it down a bit, make it a little paler. Paler and pearl.

I think it would look fine if you tone it down with the black accents like on this car

wheels, lip, decals, all black

it will look good.

CrazyTrance · 12-14-2009, 02:25 AM

BMW Alpine White III with a bunch of gold pearl in the clear. Shit is rad looking in person.

Yes it is.

We were supposed to have a photoshoot this weekend, but the rain pretty much ruined things.

Instead, we had lunch at Kogi.

Does anyone know this color code? Please tell me someone does.

killer240 · 12-18-2009, 05:59 PM

i just bought a craftsman compressor 1hp 3 gal. 3.7 SCFM @ 40 PSI
sears dude said you need to have your SCFM close to 4.
so is my compressor ok to paint a car? if not what about engine bay?
how many gal. compressor is needed to paint a whole car?

im gona start practicing so in the future ill just paint my own car.

edit: so 3 gal is not enough to paint a whole car lol. but is it enough to paint engine bays?

airhead · 12-18-2009, 06:45 PM

3 gal.??

you need at least 60 gal 3hp compressor
12.9 CFM @ 40 PSi
for a whole car
also depending on your gun
it could need even more.

check harbor frieght
