The Painting Process: Step-by-Step

To achieve the perfect paint job, you’ll need to follow a few crucial steps, detailed in in-game magazines. First, ensure your vehicle is clean. Then, remove all windows to avoid accidental overspray. The core process involves sanding the vehicle to create a clean surface, followed by priming to prepare it for paint. Finally, you can either use the pre-mixed spray paints or dive into custom color creation using the white base and tinting agents. Remember, a spray gun is required for application and needs a battery to function.

Safety First!

Throughout the sanding, priming, and painting process, protecting yourself is paramount. Ensure you wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as a dust mask and safety goggles, a gas mask, or even a nuclear biochemical mask.

Paint Quantities and Item Spawns

Each can of spray paint contains 10 units, with larger vehicles requiring more. Tinting paint bottles hold 100 units, and you can use up to 100 units of each tint for custom colors. Paints are typically found in boxes, offering a chance to get multiple cans or tinting bottles. This mod is compatible with Build 41.60 and later, and currently functions in single-player.
