I'm the owner of JMax Garage in Tucson, my homie owns Suspicious Garage in Phoenix. I'm mostly a bodyman/fabricator/designer. He is the man with the wrenches.

I'll be posting more pics soon.

147noob: dayum welcome back foo!

I like nason for solid colors. Yes it is cheaper than the dupont paint but suprise nason is the cheap brand of dupont. The same binder and pigments are used. I do clear with dupont 4700 clear or with ppg clear since those are the best clears i have sprayed... and those clears aren't cheap at all!

Been getting lots of compliments on the red color choice: not too bright (like Viper Red) and not to dull (like the OEM Supra MKIV red).

Got the chemicals ready for this fun weekend. No liquor of course, you really can't paint drunk!
