You never know until you try it. One of the things that you will need is a good air compressor with a large tank. I had a friend that painted three different vehicles by buying a really good compressor and just returning it after he was done. Not the most ethical thing to do, but gets the job done.

If you don't have access to a spray booth, then you will need to build one. So think sealed all around, filtered air supply (positive pressure is best), and air outlet (filtered if you want to be environmentally friendly).

If you want to use it, I have a spray gun. I can't remember if it's a really good one or not....it''s been a few years.

One thing that you might want to do is paint someone's beater for cheap so that you can practice and see if you have any potential trouble spots before you go full monty on your evo...

What, I'm supposed to stand their quietly while he's yelling at me to give him a towel AND answer his phone, and to do them both at the same time instantaneously? Did you forget I'm half flip and half scottish? You expect me not to cop an attitude back? Ha!

Actually, if you were there, you probably would have laughed your *** off at the situation.

All I know is that he was slathering his body up with lube while under you(r car) and you got pissed at having to answer his phone. It seemed entirely reasonable (for a non fliprish) that you could have lent a hand as when I showed up you were playing farmville and hurling insults his way.

If my girl would have given me that much **** considering I was doing her a favor (in using lube) I would have said "ah, fug it......

"

Just saying.....

It's hard to answer the phone with oil all over your hands.

Tho it was my fault - I forgot to pull the inlet plug up on my oil container and it was about to over flow.

So a half a second after he yells at me to get him towel, you call, and he yells at me to get the phone. I'm like, I'm looking for a fuggin towel and he's like, answer the fuggin phone, where's my fuggin towel... And so yeah, I told him to stop fuggin yelling at me, found a towel for him, and proceeded to talk to you because he didn't want his phone yet. I've been his handy dandy helper plenty of times, this was just one of those days where the day started off rough and didn't let up... till I fed him lunch and handed him a beer. Men!

Got to get a little friskiness out once in a while.... more fun later.
