the reason the epoxy is shiny in the pictures is cause it was still wet when i snapped the pics
here are some pictures of it completed (still in booth) i didnt get to take any others afterwards.

the blue was chosen by the owner out of the chip colors the # is mb744.25 in basf, pearls ( hok kpf100 green to blue)were mixed in with the first layer of clear, diamont dc-92 followed by 2 other coats of clear.

You can never tell from pics, because pics of my stuff makes it look great until you see it in person! LOL

But from what we see here, it looks like it came out pretty darn good

How much did this guy pay for the pait job? Who did the body work :evil:
This statement is relative to the price paid. If it cost more than $5000 tell the body man to wax and grease coat the car before paint. If less than it's all good baby bayyyybay 8)
Just walk away....

WTF does wax grease car before paint mean? Am I being slow right now? lol

Since it was done at a school im guessing it was cheap as hell.. I've seen decent and BUTCHERED jobs get done for materials + 200 bucks for application fee's or whatever they called it..

After you block you're work 320 or 180 on first prime you wipe it clean and than....Hold up I should be chargin for dis info and yes I'm buzzin too and I know I'll hear siht for dis tomorrow but fcuk it. Befoe you apply your last coat to be blocked with 600 wipe your panel wit da wax and grease remover and have GOOD lighting and look at your work at multiple angles. Gots a flaw scrtach it out and re check. Than you can re spray for 600 blockin. 600 ain't for blockin just scratch removing. If you don't get it now than I'll be back tomorrow more centered on gravity. :twisted:

Yeah it was wild last night. I only had a couple Coronas :roll: Drinking brings out strong confidence in people, that's why most think they can still drive :shock: I do believe one must take pride in what he does but not let it consume them. My bad guys 8)
