I have repainted my Big 7 three times in the 49 years I have had it, also about 5 other cars and many other vehicles. Each time with coach enamel and a brush. As previously said modern paints have become harder to keep a wet edge even on a small panel. Always use the best materials you can afford especially brushes and take time to work out the best way round the panels. You might have to do some sections again but it is doable. It is hard on a small budget to justify spending more than a car is worth on its painting. The finish you get is only as good as your preparation. As for devaluation a cars only worth the enjoyment you get from it. Anything else and you are in the wrong hobby. Pete
