Am I looking at a stock A5 with a green hopper? I am still baffled by the 6hr paint job, I don't know if you should classify your self as a If you were a "great spray painter". Nice leather jacket.

I repeat... it only took me about 10min to actually paint it. I had to tape everything off and etc before hand, which took about 2 hours each time. I am a perfectionist and it takes awhile for something for me to be happy with it. It would probably be shorter time period now due to the fact I know exactly how to do it. I had to repaint it after the first time because it didn't completely get covered... Heres a timeline: Paint Prep (dissassembling cleaning, taping, etc): prob 1 and a half hours Painting (5 coats with 30 second intervals): 5min Letting it dry, then reassembling: 1hr 5min Re-Preping: 1 hour Re-Painting (3 coats): ~5min Letting Dry & Reassembling: 1hr 5min Total: 4hrs 50min Ok I exhaggerated by 1hr 10min... but still. You guys are really critical you know that? Edited by SgtPoisonMiller |
