BIGJIM Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 I have a set of 17x7's with 205/40/17's. The color is omaha orange, i bought it from that guy who sells paint on ebay. Its single stage acrylic enamel, and very good quality. Ive used nason, western, sherwin williams and a few other off brand single stage paints and this stuff i used on this car is one of the best. I'll use it again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGJIM Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 That's a good deal if you need cheap paint. I have alot of money tied up in interior, suspension, wheels and tires, engine rebuild, so this paint was perfect for what i needed. Im willing to bet this stuff will last at least 5 years or more. See the car up above in BayAreaZT's signiture pic, well i painted that car more than 6 years ago with nason synthetic enamel back. I think he recently had to rebuff it but it still looks good overall. Im happy with my cheap paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrommitZ Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Very Nice! It brings back memories when mine was also the Great Pumpkin. It's time for me to paint too. I need to at least make my job a mono color instead of bits of gray scattered around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly simple or complex? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGJIM Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 Layed down pefect, very easy stuff to work with. You just cant rush it. Spray a light coat, then get a little wetter as you go. I shot 4 coats, the last 2 being pretty wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
