hey all, i've had this car a few years and would like to spruce it up a bit.
the green is a cheap respray over the original green paint. plus the last owner hit a deer so the fender and headlight had to be replaced. there are a few cracks from impact in the front bumper.
i'm not looking to get anywhere near a show finish, just get the car all one color. prefereably something lighter and more reflective. florida is hot and this car has no a/c. silver perhaps (the hardest color, right?)
i'm thinking a single stage urethane? would be ok doing it myself. just need to know what equipment i'd need. any particular brands of urethane to go with?
also, what plastic epoxy would i need to patch the front bumper cover?
thanks,
