            I'm doing my hood in gloss black, I don't care what other people think, i'm doing it. The car is burgundrot. I got odor less mineral spirits, made by Klean Strip. I preped the hood and put a coat on it, i think i had it too thin. So i let it setup about 3hrs and put another coat on it and let it dry over night. Just got done wet sanding the hood and put another coat on it. I'll let it dry for another 3hrs, then i'll put the final coat on it and let it dry over night. So when i get up tomorrow i'll wet sand it and buff it out.

                  No other pictures, white turned out really well, i didn't do any sanding between coats, just let it do it's thing because i was lazy. Turned out decent for the little amount of time and work i put in it.

                    damn, well wasn't able to go to Lowe's/HD yet due to having to settle some shit with school and it dropped about 15 degrees in an hour (and started raining). so I will be putting this off for a little while...........

                      I won't be done with my hood till tommorow, but i don't advise painting a whole car this way. Get some real automotive paint and do it the right way.

                            Black is hard to make look good professionally, what'd you expect from a roller? :P

                              Not much, I'll have alot of sanding to do cause it looks like orange peel city.
