you all know that i did my bodywork and paint myself..... this is to tell you that if you do it yourself DON'T USE RATTLE CAN PRIMER!!!

i used that and then shot regular primer over that, well, now i have a few bubbles that i gotta sand out/remove, and then re-shoot parts

luckily the spots are small, largest is the size of a penny (which is pretty big IMO).... but this sucks!

i'm lucky that i have a lot of stuff left over... and the spots are so small i can use a air brush to fix it, but i can't fix it till it's warm out and i'm home..... meaning, next summer! (fuck!!!!!!)

i think your lucky anything turned out ok. you did pain it in a garage. im suprised there arent specs all over the clear coat.

it came out great, it's the rattle can primer that caused that to happen..... most people won't even notice them...

i wanted to paint the door handles, but i'm leaving the top half black, so sue me, i like the red/black scheme

garage jobs usually end up the best, but then again, you gotta figure, whatever a shop does, multiply that by three in time and effort. there is nothing more satisfying that doing stuff to your car by yourself

i've done about 1/3 of what i need to to make it perfect, but to the ordinary person, the car is fine, but i'm not ordinary, i notice even the smallest black dot (or spec of dirt) but that comes from staring at the sides of the car from hours and hours on end (bodywork and sanding)
