[GlennsEK]

Looking good bro
Thanks man, apparently my gf went to dinner with your gf in PCB this weekend,lol

[boostedb16]

i paint cars on the side and that is the most original paint booth i have ever seen lol. i guess you didnt have a problem with lighting. how did you get the fog out while spraying?

[GlennsEK]

Fog meaning over spray ?

[big mac]

Yeah man haha pretty random lol. I was trying to think.who she was talking bout

[GlennsEK]

Yeah . Crazy how ppl meet it weird how they have both have tcs

[big mac]

Hahah yeah. Thats crazy didnt know she has a tc also

[GlennsEK]

Yeah she just has pink hids, soon I'm going get her exhaust and tint. Sadly it auto she doesn't know how to drive 5spd

[boostedb16]

Fog meaning over spray ?yea the over spary, i consider over spray what sticks and fog the cloud that hovers over the car lol.

[GlennsEK]

Lol I had one fan facing the opposite direction so it caught all the "fog" and and filter on it .

[big mac]

I hear ya man you jeed to teach her stick hahaha. Slamm it out my girls looks sick slammed

[GlennsEK]

I want her to slam it so bad !!! Did you do they work on your girls car ? I haven't really messed with her car are scion difficult to work on? And I'm trying her to learn it , she doesn't really have any interest to learn .... I need to change her mind on that .

[big mac]

Yeah man ive done most the work and they are fairly easy. I put s tech springs on heres and its almost tucking tire. Ill get some pics tomorrow

[GlennsEK]

Nice bro ! Look forward to seeing them

[silversol]

Looks good from what i can see. that paint booth is off the chain for a home made one. Please try to get the pics bigger i want to see more detail.

[GlennsEK]

I'll make pic larger tomorrow , and the paint booth was 10' wide 18'long and 8' high

Looks good from what i can see. that paint booth is off the chain for a home made one. Please try to get the pics bigger i want to see more detail.

[GlennsEK]

Big pictures are uploaded!!!! for all you people who said they can't see them!!!

[AnTi-PooN]

Looks great , cant wait to see it put back together

[Sammich]

so....its a pearl white?

[GlennsEK]

Yes it kinda hard to tell in the pictures

[Crazydelsol]

it looks good but in some pics it seems to need more paint! and how many coats of clear did yal use!!?
but for home made paint job looks really good

[GlennsEK]

4 base and 3 clear

[Supraboy87T]

Yeah it's hard to show a pearl white car in direct light. My Supra is pearl white but it's hard to capture it in the light. And envus said it right gl on keeping it clean.

[Drummerboy]

I could use a paint job, I got the supplies, you got the booth, lets make something beautiful:gay:

[GlennsEK]

Just hit me up bro were figure something out

[GlennsEK]

Yeah Im kinda regretting that but at least it easy to tKe off

[Mad Mike]

Looks good. Nice paint booth.

[5spdfrk]

Funny how the replies vary so much from IA to DSO. Props for doing it yourself.

[GlennsEK]

Yeah huge difference from ia to dso, thanks bro

[Mr. Clean]

am i the only one that thinks the finished product looks rattlecanned? and whatever's going on with the rh 1/4 is driving me crazy. it looks like you took a lot of time to do it, i don't know why you didn't do some more body work?

in for some fresh pics too.

[tdurr]

^^^ ur not alone, but I was just blamin it on the camera until I saw it in person or better pics.

But deff some good work man! I like ur booth

[GlennsEK]

thanks bro

[SPOOLIN]

all you were missing were the $10 side draft lasko box fans and a couple of home grade air filters.

[GlennsEK]

all you were missing were the $10 side draft lasko box fans and a couple of home grade air filters.

thanks for the info I'll make sure I get next time I paint

[Genji-Sama]

In reference to the "RH 1/4 panel" i think he was referring to the missing side molding on the driver's side, but i could be wrong. In which case i'm curious as to why the side molding was missing

[GlennsEK]

the molding was lose so i took it off and repaint just haven't put it on

[Ricer]

you can buy a real paint respirator for like $20.. not that it matters much now, but I'd highly recommend it if you do it again.

[GlennsEK]

I'm definitely getting more legit venation next time.

[GlennsEK]

Everything back on!

[Z32James]

Hmm. Was that your hatch at Shays?

[j0nbunklah0m]

angle your front lip correctly, it looks kinda funny

[GlennsEK]

Yeah lip, need to be adjusted and yes I was at shays

[Z32James]

Haha, yeah man. I'm the guy one house over with the Z and Land Cruiser. He's knocking your paint job! You should steal his tails. They really set the car off.

[sheasekhatch]

Haha, yeah man. I'm the guy one house over with the Z and Land Cruiser. He's knocking your paint job! You should steal his tails. They really set the car off.

quite talking nonsense to get your post count higher, or im comin next door and stealing your Z! sniper on the roof

[GlennsEK]

yeah still thinking about his tails, not sure ... watch out I bet sha has his "fuck ya face on right now"

[Z32James]

I know he can do some damage with that Buick spear of his :3

But like I said, I really liked it with those lights. Even with the steelies you had on when you came by (You did, if I remember right)

[GlennsEK]

yeah i member having the steelie, they are my bs wheels

[Browning151]

Looks pretty good from the pics. Props on spraying a white car in direct sun, I can't do that, everything just gets washed out and I can't tell if I've got even coverage. Also good idea to whoever suggested some better ventilation and a respirator, I spray regularly in a garage without a booth and a little airflow can go a long way towards making your life easier trying to see everything.

[GlennsEK]

thanks, bro I am working on getting better ventilation

[tintmank20]

Cool job... the only thing thats is killing me is... did you left where the mirrors go unpainted?? Just wondering

[CptWitwiki]

now that i can see it, it looks pretty good. definitely better than what i can do. haha my last paint job attempt was not very successful .

[GlennsEK]

Cool job... the only thing thats is killing me is... did you left where the mirrors go unpainted?? Just wondering
you mean where they mount at? Under the mirrors?

[GlennsEK]

now that i can see it, it looks pretty good. definitely better than what i can do. haha my last paint job attempt was not very successful .

Thanks bro, this was actually my first time painting anything this size

[tintmank20]

you mean where they mount at? Under the mirrors?

Yeah, no hate by any means ( I love hatchs) I was just wondering, I have seen when some folks do a color change and some times you can see either color buidup or the old color

[GlennsEK]

I'm not actually sure what you mean?
