Let's see your worst paint jobs!!!
Re: Let's see your worst paint jobs!!!
I painted this with generic spray paint ( on the out side of body ) when I was 14yrs old .
then stripped the paint
the resprayed it black .... it still looks like crap , but it is just a runner body .
I will have the original body set painted professionally some day .
This one is another body i stripped and resprayed. That is how I practice painting . this is my second paint job ever .
basically wanted to practice masking the windows .

Re: Let's see your worst paint jobs!!!
I think I can guarantee a winner with THIS one....Here's an old body that I sprayed in about 2 minutes.
It is BAD. Like, REALLY bad! Hahahaha. Even worse was I was in my 20's when I did it. NO patience, just wanted a lid to go running with. As you can see by the missing pieces, the body took a beating. I drive it like I stole it, still do.

I appreciate the heroism involved in trying to rescue so battered a body ...RedScampi wrote:I don't know if this counts but this is a failed attempt to "save" a body that was cracked from nose to tail. While stripping the paint it became brittle and ended up splitting in half. I shoe-goo'd it together, added filler and sprayed it on the outside. Ultimately I gave up on it but I think it's still around here somewhere.
...Shoe Goo, filler, external paint...
...these were desperate measures in desperate times!

Mr.Pink, that olive-green + yellow combo--I actually like it! It's definitely unique.

Probably not my worst, but still pretty horrid.
Paint streaks everywhere, poor masking and the colour

I don't have a picture but you'll be able to imagine the horror when I first saw it...
My buddy painted the outside of his Hornet body w/ truck bed liner, its awful!

That was his reasoning... but it didn't stick very well... could be because we thrash that car regularly though.Coelacanth wrote:But, I bet it was well-protected from rock chips & scuffs.Heffay wrote:My buddy painted the outside of his Hornet body w/ truck bed liner, its awful!

These are better than my best. Lol. Like that first black one. My buggy is all black but don't think my tape job compares.
