    Default NEED A CAR PREPPED FOR PAINT

    VEH: 1st Gen Honda Civic (1977 Honda Civic Hatch)

    There is 1 spot of rust on the drivers door - smaller than a dime - I could actually sand it off myself if I was not a lazy ass - but I am. Otherwise, it's straight forward w/ no dents.

    I am not on a time crunch, so guys who do this from home can pipe up as well as shops - but 2 weeks TOPS is my game. If you can't put 2 - 3 hours in a day after work to get it done in 2 weeks or less then I don't want to talk to you - sorry. No offense, it's just how it goes.

    I think I will keep the car primered until Feb - Mar - but I def want it dialed in for now.

    - outside
    - jambs
    - (the engine bay will be prepped later when I am ready to pull the motor before the actual painting... so no worries there)

    PM me for pics - and I am ready to begin.

    I'd say the job pays a dollar. So - it might be better for you to say, since you are doing the work - make sense? I don't care where u get the materials from -- so roll that into your costs. I do not want to think about it... I'm old school --> push button, get banana. Drop off deposit, drop off the cash, get my car - and have it prepped for paint next year. Tell me the price - we go from there. Find my "this is why I'm hott" thread for pics.

    old school, i like. pm me your number and i will call when i get everything priced out, i'd use the good **** as it looks better, lays nicer, and it will be next year before it's painted. but thats up to you, i bought the goos **** one time and had a customer complain " i didn't want the good stuff so im not paying for it, i wanted the cheap stuff" even after i asked him repeatedly, and it's not like i can take the paint off the car...im not that guy, what goes around comes around, and i damn sure aint doing it for a dollar but i bet the Hispanics in the parking lot of home depot would do it for 50, rattle can that is. you know what i meant so lose the attitude on the subject, i was simply asking what the job pays, make sense? i do good work for a very fair price, if you want it primed im probably cheaper than anyone else because im just opening my own business and looking for customers, it's your choice.

    Bucky uses home made paint aka bunch of pen inks mixed together to make his so called PPG paint.

    LOL - he won't be painting the car --- just prepping it for paint. I hate winter paint jobs - they don't "pop" like spring/summer jobs. I'll rock the primered/prepped body until the weather warms up.
