Replying to What you know about painting cars?

Yo. My brother and I have been sharing a gold 2001 Mazda Tribute for a few years now, and ya I was never really feeling the gold color, so I'm thinking of painting it black this summer. This car is already pretty old and probably wont last much longer, so I'm definitely planning on doing it myself, I'm not about to drop a bunch of cash on a piece of shit car you know. Is there anyone on here who has painted their car on their own before and could help me out by giving me tips and detailed instructions on how to do it?
