Thanks everyone for your help and advice. I think this might be a project I will have to do, but like most of you said its just getting over the fear and just doing it. I live in Colorado and from what I've read this isn't the time to do something like this. Maybe I will have to wait until the summer unless the cooler weather wont make much a difference.

 

Ask around locally. Theres gotta be someone with a garage they occasionally paint in, or even their own paint booth. Usually let you use their space for a little money/beer.

In the meantime, it would probably be a smart idea to try painting some small stuff just to get the feel for it, so you're not wasting time/money only to have a crappy paintjob on your car.

 

Its not so much the cold. Its the humidity. You can get different solvents that dry at different temps. But yah it is getting a little late. Spring time would be good. I dunno about CO but the humidity it low here. .. (PPG solvent DX840 will flash dry at 75*) flash dry is usually 15 min its the wait between coats.

 

I know Denver is dry, I was surprised at how little snow they get in the winter.
