Overlap each coat 50% with your spray pattern.
Keep your spray gun parallel to the surface being sprayed.
Wear approved respirator
Wear gloves when clearing

You may also want to spend more time with the airbrush. In this example, I think some red would have looked good on the flames. If you’re going for the ghost effect the same method could be used. Simple use pearls instead of color to outline the flame.

Good Luck! end me a photo or video of your project.

I’ve never been in this situation before and I don’t know what my rights are or if I have any.

The dealership I bought this car from ripped me off on the price of the car and the interest rate of the loan. Now to find out that there has been previous damage that was merely covered up just kills me. I bought the car over a year ago.

What can I do?

If the pre-existing damage would have been evident to a mechanic from the dealer inspecting the car before it was put on sale, then by law, it should have been disclosed on a form that should have been given to you at the time of the sale….the form has a checklist of various systems of the car and a mechanic is suppose to inspect the car and check off each item/system as being ok or not. If you received this form in your paperwork, look at it for these checkoff’s—the selling dealer must keep a copy in their records by law and should have been signed by you. Check with your state’s Attorney General’s office on how to file a complaint and possible legal rights you have and maybe get a lawyer if the dealer doesn’t want to repair the old damage or give you reparations to have it fixed. There’s also a very important legal distinction, in some states, called "diminished value" where a damaged car is not worth as much as one that isn’t and you should be compensated for this by the dealer–or any time you have an accident that’s not your fault—a lawyer or your insurance company rep should know what your state legal statutes provides a person for this compensation.

Have the body shop stop the repairs and try to estimate the previous damage costs–get pictures of the prior damage and submit copies of them to the dealer–keep the originals.
Make sure to get reimbursed for any rental car costs also and maybe your car payment for a month to cover the extra time involved in clearing up the matter.
Lesson learned—Always have a car inspected by a mechanic you trust before buying.

You will have to contact the zoning board to make sure that your facility has or can get zoning approval.

You will have to contact licenses and inspections for both the city and the county.

You will also have to contact whatever government (city/county/state) has environmental jurisdiction due to waste disposal.

Since you will have employees you will also need an employer identification number from both state and federal governme-thents.

I am sure I have forgotten some of the things you will have to check into, but this will get you started.

Hope this helps
