This paint or paint/polish question could likely fall under the never ending debates.... but I'm going to pose my dilemna none the less.
I'm building a -7. I have decided to go with Stewart's as I can do it in my garage without killing myself, my wife, kids or neighbours cats.
To paint I need : HVLP gun, paint, experience, big booth
To polish I need : electric polishers, polish compound, elbow grease, small booth to paint fiberglass parts.
Will use vinyl accents to decorate.
To polish is cheaper I think, takes the same amount of time as painting (ie. paint prep work). Polish is lighter, looks good but needs yearly maintenance. \
Here's a picture I like: http://www.pilotbill.com/Black-SilverRV.jpg
My big thing is this... I can put in my best effort with the paint and screw it up and be pissed at the result. With polish, as long as I dedicate the time, I can be assured of the result.
Why did you choose to paint or paint/polish ?
Thanks,
Darren
