Great job. It looks like you sprayed it in your garage.

How did that go? Any tips please.

I can't speak for Chris, but the visqueen is a good idea. Check out the floor. That is after the floor dried from wetting it down. (Also remove wife's shoes from shoe rack in garage)

HVLP creates less overspray. I used an old school siphon gun.

Nice thing about single stage with hardener, if you only have a paintbrush and a block sander/polisher, you can end up with a show car - um, given time to work the paint.

Great job!

What did you use to fill the sunroof? Are you putting a headliner in?

Thanks Bob

I asked because I have painted a few cars in a garage or car port but that was with acrylic lacquer which dries in the air and can be swept up afterwards.
I'm planning to paint my SC with single stage with hardener but I really don't want to make a huge mess and...
Yes, I was thinking of covering everything with plastic but I'm more concerned with fume extraction and the possibility of poisoning the neighbors.
