Default Paint Jobs

Where can I find some good instructions, how-tos, and overall knowledge on paint and how to properly paint cars?

BAHAHAHAHA!!!

If you do paint your car, remember to get a good spray gun, use good paint, make sure you have a big *** compressor, and remember these three words: Prep, prep, prep. The more work you do in the prep stage, the better it will turn out. "When you think you're done prepping, you're about half way there".

I learned a few of these truths the hard way.
