i wasn't even talking about how dull it is, but the fact of the quality and everything. like how it doesn't even look like it was wet sanded, whenever it was painted.

hence why i asked if you rattle can painted it with some gloss krylon or something.




-----edit. when you said it was rolled, that explained everything.

nope. no rattle can. well at least the hood i did. i need a new hood or i need to sand down the entire hood to get the imperfections out of it. but the entire car needs to be redone. i know. it was done with a paint roller. 4" foam paint roller. it was nice at 1st. then i started to notice all the bad parts of it. so this and next month ill be sanding it down and all to get all the bad paint off and doing it with a paint gun next time.

i wanted to go for a satin black thing at 1st:


i wanted the whole car to be that color. but then i had a thought. i wanted my car to look sleek too. but obviously the paint i picked didnt work out too well in the long run.

are you going to be spraying it down with home depot paint again? or real deal automotive paint? even cheap quality auto paint will come out better then that.
