Wow, my eyes hurt...just a little. 😊

It’s very cool, but the small blocks of color makes my head spin. I love the concept of painting a wild scheme. This one reminds me of the old cycling team that Greg Lemond and Bernard Hinault were a part of - La Vie Claire or the “Good Life” in French.

Im inspired to one day pick up a beater Vanagon and paint it La Vie Claire!!!

Go for it Ginny, what could go wrong? Doesn't sound like your looking for a show quality paint job. Careful on how much bondo you use, and prime over those areas first. if you wanted to use single stage automotive urethans, there around $85 per qt with harder. If you are going to spray , the HF gravity guns are $10 and when they stop working , just toss them. Have fun!
