Ok so i wanted to know exactly what i will need to purchase. My boss is gonna do the actual painting and what not but he said buy everything first. My car has been through **** this week (egging, keying ect ect) and i wanna get this done as i just had a third garage built onto my house. (parents wanted to park the sonata and civic in there already) so any hints, best brands tips ect.....much appreciated.


BTW it is going from silver to black....the silver needs to be completely removed and a jet black paintjob is what im going for

hmmm not going to be sure on the size of the paints to get but you first need sandpaper unless your boss has that stuff to take your original paint off, or you could throw on some brake line fluid and it'll come off quicker or paint thiner blah blah blah.....

you need primer, enough paint for 2-3 coats, enough clearcoat for 2 clearcoats.

also you'll want some painters blue tape and a lot of plastic bags or large pieces of paper
