Good videos. Certainly learned a few things from it....

I'd have liked to have seen some of the spraying process as well though, and the flatting, polishing...

Is there a reason you used a yellow primer? My car is silver - should I use a gray or something completely different? THANKS!

[zeroohero]

@SROD12321 You should use gray primer for a silver car, you can use the yellow but if you do you might need more paint to cover it. Watch out for shaddowing, this is another term for not enough paint and the primer is still visable, look at the paint from all angles to make sure you have covered it. Another little trick is to use a torch to look for the primer, if you cant see any you have covered it.

Zero, what's the most important thing to keep in mind when it comes to color matching? I did my first practice strip of sheet metal and put it against my car and the color is very close but it doesn't have the full depth/brightness of factory paint. The primer is definitely not showing and I used 3 coats of clear and then buffed the clear with rubbing compound. Any tips?
