Customs **BadLuck 52 Part 2- Paint**

An average Joe with average skills ??? I think not !!! Its a head turner for sure friend !!

 

Im pretty sure I read this earlier at some point, but what brand of paint did you use?

 

wow, damn fine color choice

 

Valspar Automotive paint

 

thats great. hahaha. i am wanting to paint my 2002 soon and have been concerned about all that.

You guys did a stellar job on that car man. I really hope I get to see it in person sometime on the near future.

 

Well done sir!

 

thanks buddy.. the weekend before we did my buddys 54 in the same garage.. its in my profile pics.. we even flaked the roof in the garage.. but with that.. we still find flake in places you would not imagine haha

 

thank you sir.. youre next..get to work!

 

Damn, looks badass.....

 

thanks so much guys, means a lot.

 

Man, I just sat and read all 18 pages... What a suspense-full journey! Very impressive to say the least. My only complaint? The easy with which you appeared to accomplish all that. Now I feel emasculated... LOL

 

hahaha trust me.. wasn't all THAT easy! but for the most part.. went pretty well... hey my aunt lives in Ridgecrest

 

Absolutely amazing! Perfect color choice and great job!

 

It's a small world. I have 3 brothers in your area. 1 down by the 395/15, and two others at the East end of Apple Valley.

 

Looks great with all the brightwork. Damn! And it hasn't even been buffed out yet!

 

not yet.. but almost time!

 

Just read the entire thread. Amazing job! The colors are perfect!

 

thanks, i really appreciate it

 

Are you gonna drive it out for the Ventura show this weekend?

 

no, i was hoping to.. but im sanding now so i can buff it out this weekend.. then im pulling my seats out to get upholstered.. the first big show i plan on taking it is probably Mooneyes in December.

 

Sounds like a good plan, lookin great.... It has made a huge turn around with the new colors.

 

thanks.. i went through a few shades of green..and wasnt quite what i had in mind.. finally found this one, tweaked it, and BAM! there it was my seats are going all off white with a small pleated insert with a similar green.. i have to start on all my inside garnish moldings.. cutting them down and painting and flaking those.. but at least the major part is almost done..

 

more proof i shot in a regular garage.. with my friends wife doing laundry one minute.. me spraying base the next!

 

well i enjoyed my shiny paint for a couple days.. now its all dull just about finished sanding with 2500.. hoping to buff it out this weekend..

 

looking good, cant wait to see it in person at Mooneyes.

 

thanks!

 

too lazy to read through the whole thread, what is the color? looks killer!

 

I saved all your pics for inspiration lol

 

Can't wait to see the polished paint ! Your car looks really good.Great work man !

 

thanks.. its called kiwi metallic.. but had it custom mixed and lightened up more

your car is next!

thanks buddy, appreciate it.. i cant wait either!
