But that is after you used the cutting/rubbing compound right? Did it still look that great (mirror - whoa!) without any final compound?



Nope. That pic was taken about 6 hours after painting. But it does show the benefit of using some Penetrol in the Brightside.

I added the Penetrol to the Brightside according to the instructions on the Penetrol can, then I added mineral spirits to the mix until I was able to get a flow rate of 25 seconds from a zhan cup. I then did my painting and the pic above is the result.



holy crap! i can't believe it looks like that after painting! you have to be really kidding me...

what coat was that? that's literally messed up.

what ratio was that thinned? i want to mimick your results Aussie driver!

btw: You MUST HAVE had a very smooth hood to begin with...

Hey Aussie Driver,

Would me mixing up Brightside Black work good like this?

400ml of Brightside paint
to
100ml of 100% mineral spirits?
