Was it your first paint job? Honestly it could have been MUCH worse. Not bad at all.

Looks real fucking bad, there is no shine, did you forget to use the clear?

im assuming rattle can.

its shinyer in the light the flake kinda dulls it down for some reason idk why, its base clear but its a cheap paint thats prob why its not super shiny, its also not wetsanded or buffed, i really dont care its my beater, i painted it in my friends garage and did no prep or anything just cleaned it up, its my second paint job, i just wanted to practice painting some more before i paint my camaro this spring

the paint was actually the duplicolor stuff they sell at autozone its like 20$ a quart i got it for free,

^ yea I did dupicolor on my buicks door, took 2 full size cans, and it came out like shit, all sputtery and shit.

lol that’s not half bad :clap:

what kind of gun and compresser did you use? its not spudderey just alil bit of orange peel which is expected, it took me 2 quarts of black and 2 quarts of clear thats it lol i was surprised, i used one of the 3 hvlp guns i have i used a 1.7 needle as well
