Default New Paint

After nine years I finally got around to painting my "52 F-1. It had an old paint job done by an Auto Shop class in Elwood Indiana many years back.
Used the cheapie Harbor Freight HVLP gun and TCP Global 2 part urethane enamel. Feel pretty good about my first vehicle paint job.

Looks Great. I have a 47 that I want to paint eventually. I like to do everything myself and your post gives me hope I can get mine halfway decent. Thanks for posting.
