<< So, I will now be painting the car myself.
 Does anyone have any good words about paint types or tips ? Remember that 
 this is California and we can't even get any of the "good" paints here in 
the 
 state and must use only the newer type paints which I have never used.
 Can I still use a regular paint gun, or must I get a new HVLP style gun? 
What 
 primers? Etc etc.
 
 Hoping I don't kill myself with this stuff...

Fellow "lacquer" heads-
I have received numerous replies on this subject and I appreciate the 
response. After too many scare responses, I'm afraid the days of painting my 
own cars has gone. (Somehow the thought of creating a "chamber" big enough 
for me and the car, then pumping it full of cyanide compounds just doesn't 
seem right to me) So, I will be taking the Duke to another "bondo bandit" as 
one member so aptly put it, to continue the paint saga.
There's always next year...or maybe not! Isn't today the day that Nostradamus 
predicted would be the end of the world?

Shiney car AND functioning lungs...
