Wash golf cart before starting

First things first! Before getting started on your golf cart makeover, remove any cushions and other parts you don’t want to get wet when you wash down your cart. After washing, air dry or dry with a lint-free towel.

Next remove any portions you don’t want painted, or painted another color (if you can). You can also cover sections with plastic wrap and tape to block off until you are ready to paint that section or just to protect it from paint in general.

Now the fun part! Shake and prep your spray paint according to instructions, then spray your golf cart with several light coats, letting dry in between coats. Light coats are always better than one heavy coat to avoid drips and paint running.

You can paint your entire cart all one color, or get creative like Lolly Jane and paint different sections different colors.

If you’ll be spray painting inside your cart like Lolly Jane, make sure you cover and tape all sections you don’t want painted to prevent accidental overspray. The great thing about COLORSHOT is that it dries to the touch in 10 minutes, so your prep work will probably take you longer than the paint process. (It’ll be worth it though!)

Don’t forget to give the canopy some COLORSHOT Spray Paint love too! Once you’re happy with how everything turned out, let dry and cure completely before reassembling your golf cart.
