Head to the library or your local book store and pick up some "basics of auto painting". Become a member of http://www.autobody101.com and read through many articles, especially the "safety" ones.

See the front page of the link above has for the "Basics of Basics" link and the "Paintucation" DVD which I've heard is very good.

Once you think you have enough information, visit a local auto body shop to see if they let you have an old fender or door and practice your spraying techniques before trying to paint your entire car...

Do you mean how good are they? I think I was able to learn a lot from them. He is very informative and explains it all very well. If you have questions you can even email him and he will reply back.

Another good place to hang out is www.autobodystore.com. Follow the link to the classroom and discussion groups.

Hi to all i try my sandblaster with sand and it did not work very good at all. Sand come out and then blocked up the tube. It was fine and dry sand can anyone help me thanks ???????

Sandblasting exterior body panels like doors and fenders is a good way to end up with JUNK parts!!!

The sand will warp the metal, well beyond repair.
