i already had a air compressor in my garage so i went to harbor freight and bought a cheap *** hvlp gravity feed paint gun for $20, in line filters $12, 2 stage demension paint from sherwin williams automotive paint $85, paint reducer $16, can of paint hardner $10, and a sheet of plastic to make a getto *** paint booth in the garage for $4 so i pretty much did it all for about $150 bucks. and i love the fact i did it on my own.

so just $85 bucks worth of the paint? there's a sherwin williams right down the road so i think i might just go tell them what i'm trying to do and what you did

it looks super good though i hope mine turns out that well

painting is the easy part, all the prep work is what makes it come out good.


take your time with all the sanding, or else your going to be kicking yourself in the *** later.


OP bike looks sick!

Re: what do ya think??

they are small round plastic in line filters. i screwed it into the bottom of the gun & ot worked out great. traps the moisture and prevents fish eyes in the paint. almost and automotive paint shop had em and lask week i seen that oriellys also has em.
