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.

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. ![]() ![]() ![]()
