DIY Paintjob Debate

If I were you, I would buy a cheap gun and spray the car. I would suggest white because white hides blemishes better then darker colors and orange peel is harder to see in white. I have sprayed reduced rustoleum on furniture. You really cant beat the price for a temporary solution, it turned out pretty good.

So I thought Z cars were done in Enamel. So putting laquer on I would have to go to bare metal then right?

Do a rub test.Take a white cotton rag wet it real good with Acetone and rub in a back and forth motion about 10 or 15 times with moderate pressure.If the rag does not turn the color of the car it is a urethane of some sort.Just sand prep and paint.If it softens the paint go ask an automotive paint supplier for a suggestion for a primer or sealer that will properly adhere to the current paint and be suitable for what you want to put on top of it.
