66 dart convertible
due to my mistakes I discovered that I needed to do another clear coat layer.
so I sanded down the paint with 1000 grit and reshot the final clear coat. I have a little trash(bug's) in the final coat but nothing bad. whew I'm glad to be done. now comes the really hard part. cuttin n buffin. that I'm not looking forward to.
in the closeup you can see the pearl I put in to make the vanilla pop in the sun. looks pretty good to me.

I really am glad to be done painting the car. whew was a lot of work but I saved a ton of money doing it myself. then again I said the same thing when I got done with the bodywork. so I'll probably sa that when I get done with un-denting the trim polishing and making missing pieces, wiring and engine work.
