1982-1992 BLACK CAMARO PICTURES NEEDED
Hi, I am planing to by another camaro 1982-1992 and wanted to paint it in black primer. but i cant find to many pictures of how it will look like so im not sure weather just to do it or just paint it in regular black. because i wanted the whole car to be black. im going to put on those rear window vents, black car bra, paint iroc rims black, stuff like that. so if you can post your black camaro pictures here, that would be great!

Re: 1982-1992 BLACK CAMARO PICTURES NEEDED
It wouldn't be a good idea to leave it in primer. If you want the flat black look then I suggest flat or satin black paint.
Do a search, 90% of thirdgen Camaros are black these days. I'm sure you'll find a pic of one on just about any thread that you open on this site.

remember primer isnt a sealer so it will eventually rust.

and like others have said, please dont use primer as a paint substitute...
It looks good at first but then it will start fading and just look nasty.

I do have an album with a couple other picks on this forum. I think you would have to click on my name and follow to my album on the main page.
I am planning on doing this again so keep me posted on yours if you go with the matt finish.

Re: 1982-1992 BLACK CAMARO PICTURES NEEDED
Thanks, they look real good , but it sucks when they go out. Oh the paint on my car was only 50 dollars for the paint,hardner, and reducer. I just painted it like this cuz i had primer spots everywhere from getting the body super straight, i'm going to change it up this summer. Goodluck with yours.

Re: 1982-1992 BLACK CAMARO PICTURES NEEDED
Yes do it. But use flat black paint instead of primer. Flat black third gens are the best. Here are some pics I found online. I am eventually going to paint one of my third gens flat black.

Re: 1982-1992 BLACK CAMARO PICTURES NEEDED
My '72 Z28 has been in Satin Black for 15 years, and there's not even a hint of rust anywhere on the car!!! In fact I still have a gallon of this paint left, so I think I'm going to shoot my 91 with it this summer. Anything's got to be better than this ugly purple the previous owner put on the car..
