I'm getting ready to put together a painting tutorial over on AR15.com and I'm trying to gauge interest if folks around here would be interested in a paiting tutorial here also.
I've been involved in painting/body work for 20 years, most of my years have been more in the painting end of it. Right now I work fulltime as a painter/bodyman, my part time job and hobby is custom painting. I do airbrushing, pinstriping, hand lettering and graffics. I made my living for a number years just doing custom work fulltime; cars, bikes, brain buckets, boats, etc. I even had a chance to flame-out a mounted sail fish...that was a fun project.If it takes up mass or moves I will paint it! :grin:
The tutorial I have in mind will be more about the mechanics of painting and surface preperation. Something easy to understand with minimal techincal jargon. Some basic and simple steps on painting, but even more important...making sure your paint sticks. I'll even give a basic rundown of different types of paint. Weather you are planning on using something like Dura-Coat or something out of a spray can, this will be something that will point a novice in the right direction.
Interested folks?

and I've decided to go back to school for a new career. I've spent all my free time studying math to do good enough on an appitude test to be interviewed for the program I'm trying to get into. Passed the test, but now I have to go in front of a 15 member board for my interview. No pressure there... :roll:
