A great book for the price!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Jon Kosmoski's Kustom Painting Secrets : How to Paint Your Car - Motorcycle - Truck - Street Rod (Illustrated) (Paperback)
I enjoyed the book. it has a lot of color photographs and ideas. It covers cars and motorcycles too. Not for the novice really. The main complaint is that they are trying to pitch their own line of paint that the author manufactures called Kustom Kolor. I'm sure it is great paint but I didn't buy the book for a history of his company or to learn how great his paint is. It does have a lot of good tips though. A good buy for the price. The author is a very famous auto repainter.

GREAT TRIBUTE TO KOSMOSKI!,

This review is from: Jon Kosmoski's Kustom Painting Secrets : How to Paint Your Car - Motorcycle - Truck - Street Rod (Illustrated) (Paperback)
This book was designed around the ego of Jon Kosmoski, and most of the book is designed to glorify and promote his Kolor House line of paints, and there are very fgew secrets to be had. If you are interested in Jon Kosmoski's life history and the millions of dollars he has made with his Kolor House Paints, then it is great.

Nice for the intermediate painter,
By Mikey H. "mhulslan" (Westminster, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jon Kosmoski's Kustom Painting Secrets : How to Paint Your Car - Motorcycle - Truck - Street Rod (Illustrated) (Paperback)
This book covers equipment, processes, and project planning very well. There is minimal "how to" for the novice, however. I'd definitely recommewnd a beginning painter start elsewhere, and move into this book.
