Painted my car

well gave up waiting in line for the downdraft booth ,so I pulled the colbie in the old one at 10 am saturday morning and pulled out 5:30 am sunday . Took longer then expected.But looks great.only thing left is to wet sand with 2000 ,buff and polish.

sealed primer


hot hues silver dust



Hot Hues rasberry red 9 coats total






black




clear





waiting for the trailer ride home


now it get to sit in the garage for a few days before I put it back together will get pics other then cell when it gets nice out

although its hard to tell the red is a transparent paint
need a real sunny day for it to show up it pics.Ground affects were taken off and painted under the night before at my house so that all the paint u see was painted together .I did not want any shading diff. in the paint colors when they were together.fog lights were covered.

Looks good. But why did you paint the car with the ground fx on? You know paint got between the body and ground fx and now is more prone to peel. Anyways nice color combo. I like it

Nice job man, being an amateur painter myself, that's some pretty good skill if you're relatively new at it

you must have missed where I said they were removed and painted under the night before. We had a shading problem with a few cars in the shop so now we paint as much as we can while on the car.
