Heads up on headliners

Well at first I had planned to not install a headliner and if your doing a frame off that's fine but if your budget and times doesn't allow for it plan to use a headliner. Shooting clear in that area is just a giant PITA unless you have a 2 quart system cup and gun.

They look like this: http://www.harborfreight.com/air-too...kit-93305.html

With this system laying on your back makes priming and the rest way easier. I have the cup and three different guns but my hoses are shot and good ones [that last] aren't cheap. But for the home painter it might be a better option since your doubling the paint you can shoot at a time.

Another thing to think about is painting the dash, I shot most everything with my full sized HVLP gun but to shoot the area above the gauges plan to use a detail gun unless you pull the windshield. Mines original in excellent shape but removing it might have broken it and again that's another $500 plus seal and install I can't afford right now.

I'm going to hunt for the headliner board and have it covered differently.
