At MCACN
The car I built finally made it to the show. The first 2 are the car. The last one is my private shop for my own stuff with this car in it. The really fun part is the stories we get to share and the people we meet along the way. Oh the stories I heard. What fun. TV is there, magazines are there...

Lookin' at the weather radar and what we got left fo rain, if they woulda took the scarifiers to the track before rain started rain would just about match quantity from the water truck
Did you notice the difference in hue on the drivers door paint. It was probably painted horizontally laying on stands. The metallic will lay down different than vertical surfaces. @FrodeeAt MCACN

I never got why they do parts separately. I would paint the jams etc, assemble it and spray like a high school kid on Prom night!
True that. Especially lighter colors with metallic. Way too easy to get a different shade.
Hard to tell from the picture but yea it looks that way. I always paint a metalic or pearl in the same direction mostly if the car was painted apart and not all at once.

I had my buddies paint my Ranchero at their shop. I think it a Corvette color, dark dark green and gold metallic. In the dark it looked black, which was fine by me. Anyway, they were just about done with it and their spray gun left a great big drip in the middle of the tailgate
"We'll fix that after the paint gets set" "Nah, just leave it. It adds character."
Well like me I'm not set up to paint a complete car so I have no choice but do one part at a time.
WHAT?
One wing at a time?
When I worked at the Buick Dealer we had a Riviera with GM's "Firethorn" metallic. After sending it to the body shop for some touch up, they couldn't match it even with blending. Long story short, we got the factory rep involved and he got Fisher Body reps and finally Dupont themselves. They finally figured out what the issue was. Looking through a magnifier, you could clearly see the metallic was standing on end when it dried. There was a half dozen cars on the paint line that they didn't turn the "Electrostatic" machine off and all the metallic was standing on end. It was a beautiful paint job but impossible to duplicate or match. GM paid to repaint the whole thing.
My exhaust fan isn't big enough and the overspray will settle back on the car and dry in a haze before the fan can get the fumes out of the garage.
