this is why they need to offer the turbo can in colors, would have sprayed the hood in like 2 minutes without the tiger striping. Going to paint the roof of my black corolla white to see if it can cool it off some in the summer.
Why didn't you just take the hood off? Also, if you used/rented/borrowed a palm or radial sander, you would saved yourself a lot of time and back & arm pain.
That would’ve been the correct way to do this. But this whole thing was rather spur of the moment. My kids wanted to ride their bikes in the cul de sac so I thought, why not. When 8 repaint the Corvair’s hood, I will do exactly what you suggest.
@@bigalsgarage9323 i figured that out when I saw you didn't fully sand it down to bare metal and primer it. Watching the overspray blow all over your windshield, mirrors, and roof was also telling. Lol. Still, thanks for doing the video of a down & dirty paint job.
Thumbs up on the video for your effort.
I don't think anyone will ever say that $12 was money well spent. 😉

I agree. Rustoleum is really missing an opportunity with the turbo cans. I did my Corvair’s deck lid with one.
Painful to watch
Clear coat it, then 2000 sand, then polish. Wax one month later. It will look great.
I will do that.

I bet your neighbors loved you, lol.
We actually get along pretty well. I’ve helped a few of them with their cars.
@@bigalsgarage9323 Cool, mine not so much, but I did a lot of resprays in my garage.
Looks a lot better whatca talkin bout?
