Hey everyone i was just wanting a little help because im going to have to repaint a fender on my new prelude. I know the basics of painting like water sanding it prime it and painting it then clear coat and all that shit. However i dont have a paint booth but i do have a compressor i can use to paint it. Any help on painting it or the best way to go about painting something like that or if its gonna make a big difference that its not in a paint booth??? THANX

you can actually get away with painting it out side, if its b/c the base part will come out fine, just use ohh...a some-what fast reducer, not super fast, cause you gotta let it flow out, also, make sure its not windy, or dusty, and that youve got a good prep job, anyways, when it comes to the clear part, it youve reduced it right, it'll flow, and then begin to cure, hopefully before any bugs or dirt use it as a bathing area, but, if that happens you should be able to wet sand those out no prob if theyre not to deep in it
