Go to John Henry's Bugshop at: http://www.thebugshop.org/bsfqpnt.htm He's played around some and did a farily decent job on his cabrio paint job for about $400. It's a fairly long and detailed page. His most important advice, tell yourself "I will be happy with the results, whatever they are".

I'm finding that paint is expensive and I was wondering if anyone has any advice for or against painting my own. I am comfortable enough with my sprayer although I will have to get a larger compressor. Can I or should i paint it outside? I have a garage but the wife complains when I lay fiberglass much less spraying paint, so outside would be nice. My concern is with any wind and temperature. I would appreciate hearing from anybody with related experiences. I have to make the decision soon. I live in south Jersey and its gonna get cold soon. Thanks for any help.
