    Default Spray application?

    Hi all...I'm new to this forum and new to the 'hardcore' stealth thing. I searched all over the forum, but was unable to find an answer to a semi-odd question: Can Veil be applied using an automotive paint gun? I drive an e30 (BMW) 325...the ENTIRE front of the car is pretty much flat...and when I apply Veil, I will be covering the black grill, headlights, front valance, and the black (but shiny) plastic trim on the bumper. This is a lot of area to cover, and I want to achieve the most uniform finish possible. I appologize for the long post, and the very noob-ish question, but any help would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I tried to use an airbrush but the product is too volatile. By the time it was out of the nozzle it just disappeared.

    A 2" foam brush seems to deliver the most consistent coating. The bristle brush is OK but leaves more streaks.

    Don't put VEIL on your cars paint! Bob said it could damage it!

    Just get a bra for the front of the car, then you can veil the lights, and even the plate if you want to.
