How to best paint a beetle
bertie_beetle - August 23rd, 2004 at 07:37 PM

ok, well, after i've had the engine overhauled at Micks, i'm hoping to have Bertie's skin painted. He's currently a bluish-green, but there are lots of chips and cracking going on. So, as i do not want to do a crappy job myself, i am hoping to opt for a completely profesional job. However, i understand that this is a very costly process. Waht exactly is involved with repainting, especially the inside panels, as i do not want to pull out the interior linings etc.

please refrain from laughing at my mechanical/ technical ingenuousness.

step 1. grab society tightly

step 2. stress yourself. till it hurts.

step 3. pull head out of rectum, and also from the rock you've been living under for so long

step 4. read stuff on the page before you post (your questions may have already been answered)

step 5. get sh*t poked at you by other site members

step 6. enjoy (shower too)
