Photos of my new paint....
Here they are... two more rounds of sanding, 1500 then 2000, and we can buff.
The paint is so deep looking. We put base color on and two coats of clear, along with enhancer, which makes it lay out more smoothly. I went around the car, sanding with 1200, then three more coats of clear.... That's were it's at now.
It should be really slick after buffing, right now it's so deep you could shave in it.
I been working on this on weekends since January. Looks like soon I'll be driving her again.

Re: Photos of my new paint.... (atotalnincompoop)
The good thing about all the work is.... I've only got about 900 bucks in it right now. Due mainly to the "sweat equity" that I've put into it, and also it sucks, not to drive it for 6 months too.
