what colour?

[nots13]

hi there! i'm gonna have a go at spraying my car myself with halfors rattle cans which do you reckon would look coolest. a nice two tone black lower and white upper ( would look like a streched out ae86 if you squint and are drunk!) or just rock hard matt black? i'm fairly confident i can get a good finish with both.
cheers y'all

I did my V8 with rattle cans. Looked alright, bit of Monet!! Didn't really take my time with it tho!! I vote for the black finish, after seeing that two tone one in brighton I don't think it suits!

i'm hoping to get mine sprayed at some point soon as well mines already white, and all the tatty bits were under half way up, so i was just gonna do the ae black/white style, but my mate reckons we might as well just spray the whole thing, so i was thinking about gloss black??

Depends how fussed you are about the finish you will get coz as you probably know spray cans are not the way for a glossy new look, it will be flat and bitty no matter how much time you spend moping and cutting, unless you have an oven etc that yoru going to paint it in?

yeah i won't be using cans if i can avoid it i used to have a matt black mk2 starlet and don't really fancy it again
i might be able to get it done free + the cost of paint, etc for putting a graphic down the side of my car by a local spray shop.....bar that tho and my mate works at a different sprayers so will be able to do most of it after hours

The only paint in my experience you can get away using cans with is matt black, unless as i say you prepare it properly and spary it in the right conditions, still your never get the finish that you would with a proper booth and gun etc
