Is it hot in here or is it just me?


Spent most of Saturday in the booth shooting a carrera gaurds red. Thought I'd share some pictures of it.




Not the place you'd want your carrera to be when you remember you left a 3Musketeer's in the door pocket. It gets warm in there.

One outdoor shot in the sun.

Kevin,

Looks great. Too hot for me though!

Would you be interested in doing some work on an original aluminum decklid? I just bought one that needs repainted to match my car.

Nice, I love that color!

Kevin, is the temp in there just a by product of the lights or is it also something you want while your painting? I know that many times cars are "baked" after they are painted.

Dave,
Sure I'd be interested. Give me a call at the shop and we can talk details.
Mike,
The heat is from the baking as you mention. Once the last coat of clear is shot the heater is turned on for about 20mins. It helps the paint flow out smoother and dry faster.
