Clear coat would give you a real nice gloss shine, and also give you a layer you can cut and buff to a mirror shine without worrying about burning into the actual paint. I have done quite a few paint spray jobs including the front bumper on my s2000 this way, I used the spray Max 2k clear on top of silver metallic paint match and it came out really super nice. Next time go two stage paint with clear will come out wayyyy better trust me. Still cool to see you do a single stage paint job, this is how they used to paint cars back in the day with no clear coat. I have an old 56 Vw that is painted like this. Very cool!

There's a lot of dust and dirt and bugs that live up in the ceiling of a garage. To be honest I would have not thought of that until starting and having things fall onto my paint. I most definitely gave you a big old thumbs up and hit the subscribe button. I figured that's the least I can do when someone goes to the trouble of making a video to help show others how it's done.

Great effort with the spray cans, but you are always going to get lots of orange peel as the pressure from the cans is too low compared to a spray gun and compressor. It'll be interesting to see how the colour holds up under the summer sun! Red tends to fade more easily than most with out a clear coat. I was wondering why you didn't use a clear coat seeing how you went to a lot of trouble to build the booth and prep the car? It would have hidden some of the orange peel too.

Thanks man! Spray cans definitely is a quick and dirty way to paint the car. I was curious, but not expecting too much and didnt want to add too much cost (because at that point a gun and compressor would make more fiscal sense). If I were to do cans again properly, I would spend the money to get a bunch of cans of clear to build a nice coat that is thick enough to wet sand and buff. I really think you can make it look pretty darn good, but i think the cost/benefit at that point starts to learn towards a compressor and gun. Also glad you're enjoying the build! Appreciate you.

you don't really need to primer the whole car like I did. Just areas you repair with like bondo or areas that go down to the metal. You'll want to sand until its feels smooth. Sanding by hand can take a while so just keep at it. Unless this "bubbling" is actually rust then youll need a harsher grit to sand the rust out. Then maybe even bondo to build it back up. If the rust has destroyed the metal then you might need to do some metal repair as well.

2x has good coverage better than turbo

I've done more research since this project and in my opinion you dont really need to primer the whole car. Just the parts where you had to do repairs like bondo or if you sanded down to the bare metal. If the original paint is rust free, just sanding it will be good enough for paint adhesion.

opt'd out of clear coat and just went with the single stage color. Adding clear coat definitely would increase durability and gloss but would get a little out of budget for this particular project.

@HazardGarage

I waited about a week. But I think itll depend on the paint you use. (dry time, usually like 1-2 days, but read the directions on your paint). Also, I wasn't able to wetsand too much because without a clear coat layer, the paint was very thin and I instantly burned through a couple spots when I tried to use 1500 grit. I highly recommend using a clear coat but know it can significantly add to the total cost).
