I am a retired auto painter, you can paint one of mine anytime, Duckman

 

Looks KILLER, Chris!! Really a great job!

What are you using for cutting polish??

 

hell ya, looks good. if those wheels are orange, i'd lose them.

 

Screw Mike, I wanna be like Chris when I grow up. The chop is awesome and the paint only makes it better. I will be using your chop thread as a guide for chopping my shoe. Thanks for the inspiration and keep up the great work.

 

Looks good to me

 

Thanks again, everybody.

I kinda said, I would paint the wheels in the first post, but here is a pic from today.

FEIT RÆV

I wet sand with 1000 grit, 1500 then 2500 grit.
After that I use a wool pad on the buffer with course buffing compound, then a finer compound with a foam pad, after that, handglaze.
Wax after 60 days.

 

Awesome.

 

Wow it looks incredible. Nice job.

 

just can't beat black, very nice.

 

amazing

 

Looking damn good!
