I have a set of race fairings coming for my motorbike and I intend to do the paint myself. It will be the first time I've done this sort of work - have previously rattle canned stuff.
I have a compressor with a 40L tank/180L per min so think that should be ok. Looking around it seems there are paint guns that only seem OK for a touch up job that cost $50 and then the price jumps to $200+ for pro units. Would appreciate a recommendation for something in between - I'm not going to be spray painting addicted after this, it is a one off job so don't want to fork out a fortune.
I've also been watching how to vids on the process and am across the basic process and the clean clean clean message at multiple stages. However, if someone has some "must-do" advice or a strong opinion on on whether to use 1pk or 2pk or whatever please let me know. Am keen to try and avoid muck-ups. Obviously I'm not expecting a pro finish and don't need one for this purpose, but I don't want them to look rubbish OTOH.
Cheers.
