I have a little rust on the nearside rear wheel arch I need to sort out in the summer so am going to buy proper experiment to spray the repair & not use rattle cans. Any advice on what I should get? As far as I know I will need a compressor, spray gun & hose as well as something to heat the garage to the correct temperature for spraying.
A long time ago I spoke to someone about it as also want to spray my front & rear lips as well as a new set of side skirts & he recommended a certain type of compressor which I think was oil free maybe something like this http://www.machinema...-litre-oil-free
What type of spray gun should I get, a suction feed gun or gravity fed?
I also want to respray my alloys at some point as the 17"s are pealing & do a complete refurb on my 19"s as well so will have plenty of use for the equipment & I think its worth the investment
I don't want to spend too much on the equipment as don't intend to spray the whole car, well at least not for a few years & don't need a massive tank on the compressor as wouldn't respray the whole car in one go anyway as my garage isn't big enough for that.
Anyone done this before, I could do with advice on spraying technique as well as only done it with rattle cans in the past & got good results but they don't last as rattle cans arnt the best thing to use & I need the correct temp to bake the paint when done. Before I start any spraying I know to make sure the garage as as dust free as possible so will put up plastic sheeting & spray the floor with water (aparantly this would draw any dust left out of the air, so I have been told) & make sure I use a mask to not get high on the paint fumes
