Customer Ratings: - Book about paint, but black and white pictures?. First impression from the book - is that all pictures are black and white and it does not help (cmon - this is a book about paint!). I will update the review once I finish reading the book.
- Sales man review. I have a shop for selling the car paints and other related facilities.
Sure the book have been helping me. But, I would like to be more simple and direct.
Regards - Paint Handbook: Paint Technology for Auto Enthusiasts and Body Shop Professionals. The description and a review or two state the book is revised and updated but the last revision was in 1998. I bit on this line, a mistake, since I wanted to know about current methods.
Techniques change, materials and tools evolve. If you want info on the latest technology, pass on this one - Excellent!. This book covered everthing except installation of the kitchen sink!! Very nice how the author explained the painting techniques over the years and how things have changed. I also enjoyed the section on inspecting a car for hidden repairs.
Would have liked the book better in color but very nicely illustrated. - Disappointing.... I was disappointed when reading this DIY paint book. While it does provide some background on paint, spray guns, techniques, tools, and painting, it lacks depth in any of these areas. Seems each chapter is really a high level view, but reading the author s background, he could have put more detail in the book.
