Can I paint my car with DIY paint?

I now have my Benz A-Class. It's originally greenish. It was built in 1999 and has 82 hp. The car pulls really well. I'm going for a drive tomorrow and will stop by some hardware stores. Can I repaint it?

I think grey and black would be cool.

Could do that with my uncle.

Brother finally got a stable car. Brother that repainting is so one thing if it should be semi-professional first you need to wipe everything off, then spray primer, then spray paint and then spray protective paint.

But with some rubbish to brush from the supermarket, you can’t do that brother, you need car paint.

The car from which the guy repeatedly tells is already 22 years old, without air conditioning. A new painting also brings nix more.

But some construction markets also have car paint but real car paint is a powder coating no spray or brush paint as durable as genuine paint it will never be.

If he’s happy, is everything good?

This is also extremely exhausting, even with a grinding machine. Please

Paint is varnish and powder coating is quite different! One has absolutely nothing to do with the other!

Paint is sure to evaluate a car. Brushing with building market color surely not!

“Supplemented climate difficult but possible.”

More expensive than the whole car.

“Finish the car.”

In this case definitely not. And several times more expensive than the car is worth.

“…real car paint is a powder coating”

Who told you that bullshit?

Maybe he’s a troll. I know his other question where he writes that. I think, however, that every person must pass through his own experiences and development steps as an individual. I’m not one of those in between, even though cars don’t have such a high priority for me. That’s why I find his joy and his pride is to accept, especially since it doesn’t affect my life negatively, everyone has to learn. Moreover, it is not up to me to judge his statements or behavior.

Joy is perhaps the wrong word. Look at his other posts.

The one alone is funny. He thinks he can now specify by car, because it’s a Benz, and his friends are all just driving smaller brands.

He also thinks about having an air conditioning upgraded in this old car… you can’t take the guy seriously.

It just has to be a car paint, that’s crucial and not where you got it.

You can remove any car with an unknown color, no matter where you bought it. Even if it had more than 82hp and no right thing would move away.

Since you kept secret about what color it is, and how you treat your car before petting, the question is not to be answered.

Come on.

The question arises as to whether the paint can be applied for metal without primer, and whether it can be applied with the auto lacquer.

It will definitely look like Schei.e.

What kind of railing? Metal? Wood? Plastic?

I have first-hand experience, I had to repaint my old car…

It does not work!!!

The result looks grayish with the many brushstrokes that do not run in today’s water-based paints. And the building market paint will blunt after 2 years.

If you do this, you’ll devalue the car if you sell it used.

Fits perfectly with his old W168 with Opa Motorization (82 hp) and without climate 😉

Take it easy. It can’t get much worse.

Can you do, but will look extremely shredy.

It already has its reason why a spray device is used for painting plants.

This doesn’t change the fact that it will look extremely shredy.

Yesterday you still claimed you’d be good with cars and could screw a lot about it yourself – and now you don’t even know that you don’t paint a car with building market paint? A car screwdriver who’s never heard of auto lacquer?

If you want to paint the old box, take at least a small roll! Then it doesn’t look so fucking.

That’s the problem. There is a difference between paint and paint. A paint will never keep on the paint.

1. With 82 hp, you don’t pull a sausage dish from bread.

Two. You don’t get as much car paint as you need in the construction market.

15 seconds to 100? V-Max 167? The 167 has my 20-year-old BMW after 15 seconds on it before it accelerates further and does not go any further at just over 250 😂

Sorry, I have to disagree. It also had an elk with 95 hp for several years. Now I have a real Benz with 170 hp and I know what’s going well.

No there are special car paint.
