[QUOTE="naboo, post: 1015504, member: 23125"] I'm sure there are guys on here that can do a better job. But yes, I am glad it turned out well. A lot of it is just trial and error - in the end, it's just a lacquer gloss from spray cans. You spray overlapping lines, and if you're good, you just polish that. I typically got runs, sand it down, do that bit again, have overspray, sand everything down, start over etc. When you have a half decent result, wet-sand with 1000, 1500, 2000, 5000. Then polish like hell with Macguire's ultimate finish. Took me 3 weeks on and off to finish it. And that's it; but, as [member=112]DACMan1[/member] pointed out, it scratches REAL easy. Just touch it, and there's a mark. Maybe it hardens more after a couple of weeks... [/QUOTE]
