on hold
cars on hold...paints on hold...everything is on hold until i get a job. my paint job could have turned out really nice...but my paint is too cheap. not being able to wetsand it absolutely sucks. my plans are to just put it back together as is and park it behind the garage until i have some money. my paint would have been ok but my paint gun started shitting out on me like half way through my door and now that looks like ****. the only things i had left to do were my driver side door and both bumpers..somehow a rag was left on my hood with paint thinner in it and it ate my ****** paint all the way down to the primer. i dont think i even have enough paint to redo my hood after finishing all the other stuff. so my plan is when i get some money to pretty much start over. going to do the same color probably but not metallic, and one that i can clear and wetsand. also i am probly gonna do it two tone. bottom half midnight blue, top have silver. for now im just trying to get a job
