Are you priming over paint? If so, how are you going about doing so?

yeah, shop looks kick ass. trucks not coming along too bad either. judging by the front fender it looks like they've been cut in, and not priming over paint.

that garage is at a vocational education center. It called BOCES. My dad is the mechanic teacher there so he get the auto body shop teacher to paint our cars. He does a decent job. Tanks for the compliment. :thumbsup:

I would love to be a mechanics teacher, but more in the body work sector, something about the satisfaction of seeing what you've managed to make by welding and sanding some rusted sheet metal with bondo, then shooting it with primer and paint

hehe, you get that good at welding stuff in, then start advertising that you can repair rusted body panels, without using bondo! You'll make a bundle dude!

I use as little bondo as is possible, I hate sanding the stuff, lol
