Painting my car

[Rev]

If you are doing this at home with just an activated charcol mask as apposed to a fresh air hood and a vetillated paint booth, I would choose PPG acrylic urethane paint instead of Dupont polyurethane.

Polyurethanes are supposed to be extremely toxic to the lungs (plastic coats the alveoli). The PPG acrylic urethanes are still toxic, but maybe less so.

I used the PPG acrylic urethane 5 years ago on my car and am still happy for the choice. All included for paint and body supplies, I think I spent $1500 just for supplies. All the epoxy primer, sandable primer and color and clear was extremely expensive. ($250 a gallon/)

It took me 6 months of weekends to do it all myself, but it turned out at least decent, and I didn't die from it. Good luck with yours.
