Re: 1NonlyAccords Body n Paint thread-Update 11.21

update 11.22:
car is painted! Im very happy with the results. due to this being inside a garage.
Have 2 really big runs on my drivers door and alot of trash,the gun kept spraying clear chunks for some reason all over the car..so I have enough clear to buff out.
Hopefully my bumpers and lip kits will come back alive after a very slick sand and buff job.Im praying.
now the crappy thing is ill hve to live with how it looks until after thanksgiving for a full buff and detail.so wont have completed pictures until 2 weeks.

Oh ok, well, you can really see the NHBP in the pic of the gaslid.

For all the work you put in to it, I am sure only you would notice imperfections.

Monty, did you do any of the interior pieces as well?

I would have, I think that would have been a nice touch to carry the colour to the interior.

No,I really wanted to paint my woodgrain radio bezel,shifter,window controls..but I couldnt,as mentioned I couldnt get a clean tape off the bezel vents.so maybe find a black overlay or something. only thing i didnt get out of this project.. :(
