Default painted the ws6

I finally painted most of the 1996 pontiac trans am ws6. I used spi epoxy, spi 2k, spi reduced as sealer, hok bc25 black, and universal clear still not done, but here are a few pictures. all for except the hood is straight out of my devilbiss plus. I'm not sure on how to tackle buffing the rest of the car it is really curvy do i just use a regular block? This is my first car i ever painted. I did practice on 3 motorcycles.

























for the rest of them here ya go

I feel you ,but my car was in pretty bad shape. the hood was oxidized and i had a rear quarter messed up in a fight. I figured it would be a learning experience. check out my photobucket for some progress work and my upcoming project.

I did most of it at home but, i sprayed it at the junior college. I want to make a booth at home to get the rest of the small parts, but we will get hanged here in California for that. so ill have to wait till February to take the class again. I'm sanding and buffing what i have done tomorrow and the next few days.
