That's one of the better ventilated hoods I've ever seen.

Lookin' good! Your first time painting? I've been learning while I do all my bodywork on my goat and when it's ready for some paint squirted on it I plan on tackling that too. Are you spraying base coat/clear coat? That black looks great. There is another guy on this forum that also frequents autobody101.com and he is painting his bird black one panel at a time and his results so far looks great too. You and him just give me the confidence that I can do it too.
Good luck and keep us up to date on the progress. Here's a few pics of where I am with my goat. This is after boardsanding the first coat of primer filler and then spraying a second three coats of primer filler. Brian |
