Description: Painting cars is something that most people usually leave to professionals--and with good reason. Paints are expensive, and if you lack the knowledge and skill it can quickly turn into a really costly mistake. Furthermore, it'd be such a hassle to do it all over again. But even the professionals started somewhere, so why shouldn't you? In this video, Stacey David tells you how to do just that--and with the perfect material for beginners: lacquer. They were used back in the old days and have become obsolete, but DupliColor has a new line of paint that is lacquer-based. The great thing about lacquer is it's easy to apply, it dries quickly, and is considerably cheaper. It's also easier to use. In fact, it looks so simple that after watching this video, you'll want to do it yourself right away!
