I have never painted a car before. I oil base enameled our entire house about 20 years ago. 17 interior doors, entire kitchen, trim on doors, trim on 19 windows and ton of baseboard. It turned out perfect. A ton of prep work and 2 coats of primer and 2 top coats with sanding in between each coat. I know prep work is a huge part of the finished product. My worries now are that this is a completely different animal. The photos show what I have done so far to get an area to paint in, in my shop. I could use some advice on anything else I should be doing. Specifically, I want to make sure my filtration and dryer from the compressor is good. What do you guys recommend for a set up for making sure I have clean and dry air going to the end of the gun. I set up curtains for the spray area that are all Velcro’d together. I was planning on using the air scrubber, for the supply air in the booth, and the exterior exhaust fan for the shop, to vent the area that I’ll be spraying in. Am I an idiot with my plans?
