Can this be used to paint a vehicle?

I would give it a go at painting a car but make sure to use a LPHV paint gun... Like any other compressor make sure to use filters on the air line water will kill your paint job.

Yes to paint a car you need 30 to 40 psi and this air compressor could sustain that preasure easy. Although you would have to use an air filter and water separator to get clean air.

It absolutely can. I ordered "Dupli-Color BNS0601 Silver Metallic Nissan Exact-Match Automotive Paint - 8 oz. Aerosol" with the mirror and I've painted it. They send the mirror and the cover separated, so I could easily paint it. It only takes 30 seconds to paint, and a few minutes to dry.

Yes. It's painted with a flat paint so it would be very easy to repaint it.

I don't think so. I don't know if the paint would work. It might. The machine would be fine. Just worried about the paint.

I don't know because I haven't painted a car. But I remember reading a review that said it did a great job. From my experience using the gun, I would think it would be great. Hope this helps!

Absolutely not. This paint will never dry on vinyl and will remain tacky forever. Paint vinyl with vinyl paint from any auto parts store.

The surface is pretty smooth and would not take paint well. However, if you could find a primer that would bond with plastic well, then I bet you could paint it.

I used it for automotive paint. That was the sole purpose of my purchase. It covered a small area with every spray. Do not rush to paint your car right away. Practice how to control the airbrush before painting directly on your car. Keep the airbrush absolutely clean with passion. A little lapse in diligence can cause a great deal of trouble. Follow this advice religiously. No kidding. Buy a set of cleaning brushes. This is where the work is. Painting is over in just a few seconds. Adjusting the fluid viscosity is almost impossible in words. You just have to find your rope by trial and error. Good luck.

It is paintable, although I think it would be overkill to repair a crack in the dash. It expands quite a bit when it activates and the amount to fill a crack would be very small.

Hello, yes this is probably paintable. I never painted it because I have a black car and its black. The item is a great fit and match to my 04 Nissan Altima.

Yes it can. You may have to use an extra coat of paint for complete coverage though.

Probably not. Sprays VERY thin paints OK, but sputters a lot. Large blobs are emitted randomly. Good for sealing a deck, but painting a car, no.

I see no reason why it couldn't be painted. It is a plastic surface so the only precaution would be to use a paint approved for painting a plastic surface.

you can paint if yourself if you are confident enough and can find the right color. I gave it to the guy who bought my car and he said he will paint it. good luck

Doubt it. If the discoloration is due to fading of the paint from the sun then no, this wont help. If there's just residue left on the vehicle from the adhesive then some goof off and then finish with the Simoniz clay might do the trick.

I've read that it can, but I'm sorry I can't be much help. I've only just taken it to home depot and had them mix it with an oil base paint.
