Did you put a clear coat on the red one or did you just spray on a few coats of gloss paint?
Looks real good, I just might do this to the rex.

<FONT SIZE="3">ok so..CRX is getting its make over with pix!</FONT>

material cost: ~$15

Saturday was a no go. did not get to lay down any paint. i was busy and finally got time to do the masking. which is now all done. sunday i will be setting up my booth and shoot it down.

heres some pix to keep you entertained. there was a fist size dent on the fender. i shaped it back and bondo'd it. also tacked in the bullet hole, shaved and bondo'd it. car was sanded down with 120-180grit wetsand.

i figured lets try to refresh the paint on the fender..god the results is super dope!

faded


sanded 1000-2000grits


rubbing compound took place.






ok im ready to start!




started with the bullet hole




then the front fender



masked




also got a new gun that imma give a shot at. got it from home depo for $60 gravity fed Husky paint gun..



enjoy

so much easier to clean than my other one..

can't wait to see that rex

My_EFsedan

i laid down a coat at @ 12pm. some bubbles/imperfection showed up. so i let it sit and dry so i can wet sand it down before laying down another coat. i mixed a bit thin so it was like also drippin at some part. gun that i bought, the damn air control was set to high where it shot hard.

i brought the air down and remixed the paint. im hoping to paint the car before dark.

heres some pix.

nikunter

try wet sanding
all of your work has orange peel.
just constructive critisism
