Him (after she spent a day sanding Car down to primer, and he spent two days primering and painting it a deep, sparkling metallic blue): Well, how's it look??

Her (contemplating the unevenness of the paint due to the fact that we attempted to do this with cheapo spray cans): Uh, it's a *beautiful* color... but it's really uneven. It definitely looks like, um, a Handjob!

Him: Well, it's nice to know your car is into auto-erotica...

So, does anyone know the best way to inexpensively paint a car? I will have to go over it again using an alternate method.

===Hey, Mildly Mottled is in this year! (grin)

===(I have to admit, I now understand why people use airguns to do this...the variability between cans alone was rather annoying, not to mention differences in the can itself, especially towards the end of a can.)

I reccomend the following book:
Chilton's Guide to Auto Body Repair and Painting.
it goes for around 10-15 dollars and can be found ar pepboysm, track auto and the like. you'll prolly want a sanding disk attatchmeant for an elcectric drill, as well as a buffing disk, they sell those too, at automoive suply stores. course you also want to apply a coat of primer before your base coat of paint.
