How To Paint Your Car: Modern Paint Technology; Custom Painting Tips; Bodywork and Prep Techniques; Safety Advice
  There is nothing like a deep, lustrous paint job to make a vehicle stand out from the crowd. Fortunately, it is still possible to paint your own car, whether you want to repair a fender-bender or perform a complete, custom paint job.
How To Paint Your Car reveals the techniques and technology behind automotive painting through 250 color photos, detailed captions, and a comprehensive text. You'll get the most up-to-date information about paint chemistry, the tools of the trade, and safety gear that every automotive painter must know.
The book covers, in step-by-step detail, how to properly prepare your car for paint, including bodywork, surface preparation, and masking. After reading how to properly apply paint to your car, you'll also learn how to add custom touches and how to care for your paint job after application. Everything you need to feel comfortable and confident taking sandpaper, masking tape, and a paint gun to your special vehicle can be found in the pages of How To Paint Your Car.
