Remember this "if it feels like a brick it will look like a berick". Straightene all dents with filler and prime with a quality primer like condar from ditzler or some 80s from dupontuse a 220 grit sandpaper no courser for all chips and scratche, feather those out until they are smooth, doesn't take long. (If you try hard enough without interuptions you can sand a whole car in about one hour) Use the primer to fill in the scratches and chips let dry, sand them down with 320 paper or your 220. (the courser your paper the more scratches will show. Blow out everything possible starting with trunk, hood, and doors open. Blow out the door jambs gas cap door, cowl vent panel if it keep blowing out dirt from an area keep lowing until it stops. Remove any chrome or emblems you can get to as best as YOU can. Now lets mask the car up. Use aquality tape and paper, lets use 3/4 in. 3m tape and go around every smallthing left on, window chrome, door handles if chrome (and if they are the flip up kind, don't forget the rubber underneath them). Use some 2 in. tape inside the doors both sides the car part and the door part inside th trunk and the hood, (you are trying to keep overspray down) Once you have done that it is called outlining lets get the paper, usually a roll of 18 inch paper works wonder to cover your windows, bumpers ( if they are crhrome, grille etc.. Make it as neat as possible with no wrinkles as they can hold dirt use a razor blade to trim excess off. Now use some 00 steel wool to get around areas wehere the sand paper couln.t get door handles near the trim etc. blow the car off again and now use a degreaser available where you bought your paint. pour on one paper towel to wipe on and use another to wipe off.

== == To do it yourself: Around $43 This is how: For an area that large you would want to use a spray paint. i recently visited paintscratch.com. you enter your year/make and VIN number, as well as the paint code usually found inside of the driver door, and they'll send paint that matches perfectly. you want to get both basecoat and clearcoat cans. if you have any rust, get a can of primer as well.

Yes, that sounds like a reasonable plan. - Make certain you carefully mask over any vulnerable areas.

Yes, but it is water proof and stronger.

Your ceiling may have been oil based, or really anything other than latex. If you used latex primer over oil then there is really nothing you can do except remove it and get a super low gloss oil base.

i have dried white latex paint on car seat. what do i do to remove it?

Yellow reflective road paint can be removed from a car by using a rubbing compound. This should be done as soon as possible. Rubbing compound looks something like automobile polish in a canister with a rubbing sponge.

Gold and Silver go best

You could but it wouldn't last long. Urethane is a polymer and would be flexable to heat and cold, acrylic is a hard finish and would most likely crack or chip off.

Most face painters charge by the hour. A good face painter can complete 10 to 12 faces per hour, based on medium detail and coverage. In the US, it seems face painting can command as much as $150 per hour. On average, the charge is around $60 per hour. Therefore, an average face paint design takes about five minutes. At $1 per minute, the artist could charge at least $5 to paint one face.

Yes, estimates have been put forward by scientists that indicate a 1 degree (C) drop in global temperature if all rooftops were white.

Most likely cause is wrong reducer for the temperature. If you use a fast drying reducer in warm/hot weather, the paint will dry before it has a chance to level out. There are 3 basic kinds of reducer for enamels, Cold, Mid temp, and hot weather. You don't mention what type paint you are using, so, I am pretty much guessing what it is. However, this rule holds true for most all kinds of paint used today, base/clear, acrylic enamel, and single stage urethane. Air pressure and paint gun adjustment also plays a role, but reducer is my guess.

If you mean unsafe in terms of poor visibility by other drivers, the worst colours are grey (because they camoflouge against grey bitumen) and green (against green vegetation) white and yellow cars are the most visible. Surprisingly, red cars do not rate well - according to car accident studies, especially in built up areas.
