Re: how do you go about painting
I bought a cheap Hi Vol Low Pressure (HVLP) spray gun at Harbor Freight, and a hose. Since my bus has air brakes & it's own compressor I just plugged into the air tanks under the bus. I had to start the bus and build up air pressure every so often (the HVLP gun uses low pressure so I could spray for a while with hi pressure in the line with a pressure regulator to reduce it at the gun). I also used Rustoleum, thinned it down about 15% with Acetone...
I didn't do a lot of prep on mine, washed the bus first, then wipe it down with Acetone on a cloth. Paint has held nicey for 2 years now.
