2day i thought was gonna not happen....as it was supposed to rain...held off long enough tho
as i wanted to paint it in acrylic we used retardant thinners to get a better gloss, painting 2pac in my shed cuases lots of fall out and crap in the paint, still gotta paint the sills and door window surrounds black too...
put heaps of clear on it so i can buff it back to perfection....tho there is some small imperfections i didn't see....
i hate being picky but that's me i guess!
more pics soon

Why the month wait before buffing, what do you mean by 'settle in'?
