1998 Ford Saleen Mustang Speedster

Here is my project, sorry had to scan to post, dont have a camera yet. But i will soon for sure.
I skiped many painting steps that are in manual and gave the engine some live look. The paint on the car...i am not satisfied with it, i cant get it any better. Maybe using tamiya paint will change it?

:D You should try a polishing kit,you seem to have a lot of orange peel I tried! My tamiya compound makes the paint dull, mat, plus gives it alot of scratches! I dunno, i need help here for sure..

I thinkyour holding the can too far away from the car. 12 inces doesnt always work with diff types of paint, i dont care what the y say, u have to exparement.

nice work on the engine compartment though!:licker:

Lightly sand it then clearcoat it,get rid of the bumps first
Make sure the paint has dried for at least 2 weeks befor you sand it,then wash it befor you clearcoat it:bandit:

I still cant find the polishing sand paper, like around 12k grid. Any place to order online?
