Hello

I want to repaint my celica from blue to silver.

I hear it can cost up to £2k ($4,000)
I was thinking I could hire a spraying machine and buy some paint plus some elbow grease.

But nothings that easy, what do I have to look out for?
And if I have a spoiler thats not primed what do I have to do?
Can you buy the paint anywhere??

Cheers >>

I would say, if you dont know how to do it, dont do it.

just mask out the windows and everythin u dont want painted...just buy like 1,000 cans of Krylon paint and paint away... >> hehe j/k ooooh and dont forget to buy like 2000 cans of clear coat too >> no but seriously...just let the professionals do it if you want it done right...thats the best advice i can give

if you don't know then definatly let a proffessional do it.

If u have the money and don't need the car for a while, try it yourself.

Thats what im doing.

Since im not driving my Celica in the winter im gonna prep and paint.

$300 for my paint and clear
$150 for my paint guns
$100 for the DA sander
$50 for the sand paper

I have a friend stopping by every now and then giving me pointers.

If u don't think u can do it, THEN let a pro do it. >>
