The move to water based paints for spraying cars? orange 90?
spy:
I am saving up and should be able to buy me an old 90 before the summer is really under way. Now I always fancied spraying a car but have heard a bit about car paints becoming water based?
Will these be more difficult for an amateur (read complete novice) to spray with? I assume they need coating in some kinds of solvent based laquer?
I fancy painting a 90 in some mad colour like maybe tangiers orange or even bright yellow.
The question is, should I buy some paint now?
If anyone has a brightly painted 90, please post you pics to give me some inspiration!
AbyssDJ:
id avoid orange or yellow, personally... theres loads done in both of those colours! see if you can find something a bit more unique :) cant help on the paint front though, sorry
Littledan:
i just sprayed my bike this lovely color!
Littledan:
forgot to say, this was a water based color but if u laquar the car too u will be fine!
smo:
I was under the impression to do it properly water based paints need a 2 pack clear topcoat applied after, which is definatly NOT a home diy job.
