I HATE Paint!!!!

[spudd]

i have ran into that problem before when i was into farm toys.the only paint that was consistent on color that i found was plasti coat brand. i did the hot water in the sink idea years ago with it and boy dose it lay down nice and dries quicker also.

i use automotive base coat now so i dont run into that problem.i have sean some killer jobs with piss can but i sure cant do it.

i think we may have to do a how to paint video and post it on here.
i'm not a pro but i have been doing it for 30 years.
not every one dose it the same way but if you get the basics and techniques you can learn to do some great work.

I agree on the cans being all different!
The video idea is a good one! It goes beyond paint though, the prep work, how to sand smooth, base coats, primers etc...

I did exaggerate on that a little I think 4 of them lil ##$%y testers . I swore they must of had just thinner in them and to think the HVLP was in the shop mix a .5 pint and tack it and final coat it . you guys like the 2 stage stuff I've been paintin single stage since the grasshopper was bigger then my foot . no time for clear coatin , truck must be on the rd on Monday but then , I never painted show stuff either (yet)
