Thread: Anybody ever roller paint their car?

my G20 is painted with a roller almost every week!

^^^haha YES!!!

Not rolled on but it is rustoleum with a clearcoat on it.





And what it looks like now after it's all dusty from sitting in the garage.

90/10???? Everywhere on the web it says 40-30% paint, not 10.. I did mine with 40% paint

I would just buy a cheap HVLP gun for $30 and either borrow a compressor or buy one. You will use both again at some point. You can use any paint you wish, just thin it out. I bet a quart would be enough.

How did you paint yours?

used a cheapo siphon gun, and thinned the paint down with mineral spirits. It's not rocketscience you just thin it down enough so that the gun sprays well, without splattering. You'll get a feel for it.

go on hondatech.... they do it like crazy!

yeah hondatech lol, but yeah 90/10 honestly if your spraying it you want to thin it just enough to spray through the gun easy, if you find that thread on honda tech and look at the end most of the guys getting good results aren't thinning it very much and getting pretty good results with like 4 coats

Yeah I put 3-4 coats, somewhere around there and it was good enough heh
