I starting painting cars back in 1986. Man has it been that long. lol

Plastic Dip has really became popular. The aerosol version is pretty easy but the actual Plastic Dip you buy to painted through a spray gun takes some practice and takes a lot of time to spray.

My Talon has taken more time then I thought because there was a lot more body damage then I originally thought there was. I have about 70 hours of "touch time" in body and paint as of right now. Plus there is the challenges of doing this in my own garage that slows the process down a lot.
