I finished my first paint job. Put enough time in on it to make it look 1000% better than it did before I painted, exactly my intention. I didn't do all the bodywork before starting so I didn't bother spending too much time getting the paint as perfect as I could if I wanted to spend lots more time on it. Didn't seem worth it since there were dents and creases, etc. under the new paint. But I was happy with the results. And I credit the new paint with getting many of the 16 interested inquiries, including the new proud, happy owner. Thanks all for mountains of great info in this beautiful thread.


Can you tell which is BEFORE and which is AFTER? I hope so!
