I'm assuming with my car in primer and completely blocked and ready to spray - I should move on to the body shop. I want to use this technique, but I don't see how I can paint engine bay, underside of hood/deck, cowl with vents, etc and get the finish I wan't, unless I can spray these areas w/o orange peel? Would these paint jobs be considered 10 footers or are they equivalent to any good solid-colored (I'm thinking white) high-gloss paint job say, under shopping center lights at the evening cruise-in ?



I ain't skeered (you Brits probably haven't heard that one!) Anyway I'm confident (I got skills, as Napolean would say)I can sand, I can buff and best of all, I'm not in a rush. As stated above, my concern is engine bay, under hood, cowl with vents - how best to approached these areas and get the results ? Should I spray ? Am I asking too much if using this method ? Body is prepped (blocked/guide coat/blocked, you guys know the drill)and it's time to make the decision. I really want to do this myself if possible.
