Alex's 92 MX-3RS..."MAX"

Post by kudkudniyog »

PEACE!!! :D

This has been my ongoing project for a long time.

Finally after buying my son Ariel another MX3 for his birthday (nicknamed "CHLOE"), I decided to finish mine (nickname "MAX"). It is currently in the primer stage. I already bought all the items I need to finish the paint and hope to finish it before "CHLOE" needs to be painted.

Pics to come.

I finally started painting MAX last sunday but had to stop. Sealer is already applied and just need to color. I will need to scuff it and apply another coat of sealer since it's already over 72 hours after last coat. I will continue this weekend. Here are a few pics:

Paint booth?

Thanks.

Yes, I installed a box fan near the top of the tent venting out. The "window" that you see was actually an air filter. It blew off because of strong winds early this week.

Thank you all for your support.

It wasn't that bad to see with the black walls. It was still daylight when I sprayed.

Thanks again. More pics coming soon.
