x2 and dont touch the bay with your hands b4 you paint due to the oils

CLEAN CLEAN the living shit outta of it

iam thinking on do this my self but what paint should i go with , since i have my motor out and i can do sumthing while i save up for the rest of my parts

obv got the cleaning part down but make sure you prep it .....

sand, primer, sand, paint, sand, paint, sand, clear, sand, cut and buff if possible

and then look forward to a piece of glass for a bay

Thanks guys for the tips I sprayed the bay and the fing c@ar quest I got a quart of paint and quart of reducer and then likr a tiny ass bottle of activator so I only got like 2guns worth of paint. Plus I dint have enough light so I couldn't see the spots I missed so basically wedsday I get to go back over it
