GT4_Steve Regular Location: Sutherland, Sydney Registered: June 2002	Re: who has resprayed their car? Fri, 27 September 2002 13:16 DIY! $300 for paint and thinners plus blocks and sandpaper. I recommend this and will save you heaps. Labour time is the killer and I'm sure someone has a mate that can spray. Once you've seen a guy do it I'm sure you'd tackle your next spray yourself. Just don't leave too long a period between sprays and make sure you pay attention the first time! http://groups.msn.com/gtfour/st185cs.msnw You might have to frig around to find the pic. It's the "my first Celicas" pic. Sorry I didn't have a full car shot. It would have showed off the lack of side strips which I painstakingly filled and sanded smooth. Anyone who owns an ST16X should perform this mod!! My first Celica was all done by me except for the actual spray. I bought the materials needed to fully sand it right back to original undercoat and another couple of sands all over between coats. I got tennis elbow as I did it all by hand. I also bought the thinners, prepsol and paint which cost me about $300 I think. Then a mate sprayed it for me in the Port Macquarie Bus Service bus parking garage. (to the loprik who stole all my rubber sanding blocks and sandpaper may you rot in a pile of your own stench one day..bus driving scum) I used acrylic and it came up well. For anyone wanting a top notch paint job at best prices by a long way then let me know. One of the best in Sydney. He also is more than capable of full custom metal working and is in hot demand to do those hot rod conversions where you chop the roofs and stuff. Guaranteed mirror finish, if thats what you want. (got into a lot of trouble with that white ST162, a lot of outruns. those plates at one stage were wanted in 3 states from chases that I luckily got away from. I'm am reformed now and realise that speed kills) [Updated on: Fri, 27 September 2002 13:20] [Report message to a moderator]
