Well i got it wet sanded and buffed today.
It looks soo much better, but there are a few spots on the car where there are still fish eye. The only way to get ride of it is to repaint. Oh well, it still looks really nice.

Thanks, the gap is because I didnt mount the bumper. just put it in place to have more room in the garage.

I tired to sand it smooth


Then wetsand it


So I used paint stripper







All stripped





Primer sealer

Filler applied

It may be the pics. I think I sprayed to heavy. I ran in a few spots, and at the start I didnt plan to use a booth so I bought quick hardener. Because of that I kept putting on coats to try to make it shiney. The owner of the shop after seeing it, told me what I did wrong and we sanded the car down and repainted it today. It came out wa better when I bought the slow hardener.

ineed good progress... it looks like he sprayed dry... but dont sweat, thats better than to heavy... orange peel is MUCH easier to fix than a big ol Run is. but really it looks pretty sweet

[motorsports_3]

So today is quite a big update...

I towed the car somewhere....


Where do you think....

Good enough answer?






Wait... Is that paint?


You bet...



Paint before primer (base coat)








Now I didnt take these pics, as I was painting, so I dont know where they fall into place. Some were the first, second and third coat of clear.




























Now I think these are pics of the completed car.

If you can, get the booth. You won't regret it. I know a couple of people that have done it in their garage and it gets pretty intense. The paint gets everywhere. The fumes will drive you insane. Your garage, tools and contents will be red until you paint it some other color. Keep up the good work! We need more e30's driving in FL.
