what paint

[nobby911]

Looking to tidy a couple of areas in my engine bay, what type of paint is used these days for home spraying. Last time i did a bit of spraying (20 years ago) i used Cellulose is this still available.

 

Also any advice on what tools to use, like compressor size/capacity etc. not doing a full respay just some smallt tidying jobs.

only place i know is in bedford called nu- again they do cellouse, me old man had some mixed up for his truck but it came out really shit so we ended up using 2 pac n it came out nice, takes longer to dry though.

 

im doing my engine bay, think im just gonna use up synthetic ive got in garage for now

go to nu-again behind Iceland in the bus station....they can sort out cans or mix it up for you to spray through gun ...take your car so he can match it up

Thanks for replies

So for home spraying is it best to use cellouse, i have heard scary stories about using 2 pac can be very dangerous.

 

The reason i was asking is i thought cellouse couldn't be sold anymore plus didn't fancy trying to spray 2 pac.

 

Also as i am only spraying small areas any recomendations on what sort of of sprayer/compressor and gun i should get.

me old mans used cellouse for years and only place he and i know of is nu-again in bedford, we tried 2 pac n it came out lovely as for scary stories just make sure you wear a mask, i brought mask at nu agean and a new sealey spray gun, both 20 nicker
