hrmmmm i've already painted the interior of my car, MIGHT AS WELL TRY THE OUTSIDE!
what kind of paint, sand paper grind do i need and anything else required? and what place would you guys who have done this before suggest to get paint that matches Stock Honda Red best? my HB has the moldings and mirrors which are black still.....if someone could post or PM me with the details that'd be great.

Ait guys since i started this thread I might aswell bring a CLOSURE to the WHOLE PAINT THING.


I know of a place that will get me ANY PAINT i need cuz thats where they mix it and **** all they need is the code but here is the problem I NEED SOMEONE WIT A COMPRESSOR cuz like i do bodywork n **** at this garage i do and like the place that makes the paint come in like in a bucket instead of cans cuz we usually paint the enitre car (not me tho).

So if someone has a compressor we can all pitch in money and then buy the paint and then paint it (we can do like 5 cars at once if they the same color) and we will get a professional finish too.

Thats what I was thinking when I went there to the dealer to ask for it. I thought for sure they were gonna have it and bang, they don't. The guy there told me to get it professionally painted as well because he says the paint is gonna chip after 3 months. Surprising they didn't have it though, and now C.T. don' thave it either eh....

As for the compressor, you mean an air compressor right? Like something they use to take off tire bolts, pump tires, and all that other stuff at mechanic shops, right? Cause if your talking about those, I do have one in my garage, but I don't have the thing that you put the paint into to spray it. :working:

Myself a Duy (Jugglez) discussed it at the meet this past week. A couple of us will be getting together at my house I THINK probably/possibly next weekend. Space is limited, so we kinda decided to stick to members only and a select few members at that.. We'll discuss more as time comes.. Sorry guys, but this requires a LOT of space and it's impossible to get too many people in on this at once.

K so guys i have a place to paint the moudlings i can take in 5 cars MAX (its ma aunts place). So who is in on that? Also can someone get VSM colour paint cans lets say about 3 cans per car so about 15 cans????


If so email me at goldengun101@hotmail.com with how much it would cost. So the person who gets it will come along to the mini DIY meet and will get paid the amount and can also paint it at the same time I think i can provide the sand papers etc..

I went to a Canadian Tire today.. They don't carry Vogue Silver.. They have Satin Silver and some silver that Hondas used in 1985-87.. Is this some sort of a joke? Why do they carry paint from like over a decade ago and not the recent stuff? Bah!

Before Steve has a hissy fit, you guys need to check out Sherwin Williams or whatever that place is, it's posted in this thread. They've got every paint imaginable.
