    Now you have to find where you stashed all the pieces you took off.

    Is it base/clear?
    What brand?
    What final sand grit prior to sealer/color?
    Looks very nice. I will be spraying mine in the coming month so that is why I am asking.
     
  17. That colour is killer !!!


    Your car looks like it’s going 100 mph standing still !!!

    love it wanna see it all assembled

    In my defense, I bought my paint 8 years ago, so I didn't copy the color of rockables great looking car. It's just a coincidence.

    No disrespect about your painting or anything else.
    Only a comparison of two nice blue colors.
