I am going to paint my car by myself but i got some questions.
What kind of paint to use? Ive seen Arcrylic, Enamel, and Latex. I am confused, they are all used on autos, but which is the best, and why? And any advice on how to paint or anything? Yes i am using a airbrush, and i am getting my paint from house of kolor. Any advice on how many coats and how many clear coats? |

Ditto. He's absolutely right. I do bodywork for my living, and the only time you need to strip to metal is paint peeling or if theres more than 3 paint jobs on the car. Even still it'd be best to sand down a few of those paint jobs than all of em.
