I stripped the paint and re-sprayed it with telefonica blue. I think im going to throw on a clearcoat. BTW does the clear spread out better if its sprayed in a warm place? (its testors clearcoat) When I sprayed the old paintjob (in the cold) it was really orange peely and didnt shine. Feedback welcome.

-New exhausts
-WRX STi rims
-dropped

FLASH ON









NO FLASH!

I'm one of he big fan of Testor Clear coat.. for the temp, don't spray of it's snowy Warming will help a bit but not really needed...

Put 1 coat.. sand inperfection then go with a second coat.. if still inperfect, try with compound..

nice color btw.. and for pic, what is your cam ?

A warm place will for sure work better. But as Vric said, sanding down and a second coat should do the job.
Nice colour.

Good luck.

nice job, but it looks like more paint might be needed under the spoiler. it looks a little thin there from what i see. what wheels be those?

Don't y'all read the posts? He said "WRX STi rims" pretty clearly!

There's more to A/F than just pretty pictures... :finger:

Thanks for the tips Vric. Oh and my camera is a Kodak Easyshare 4.0 megapixles. I love it. It takes really detailed pics.

freelunch: the paint is Tamiya Telefonica Blue. It is supposed to have sparkles because its a metallic!

And yes, they are WRX wheels. MAYBE YOU GUYS SHOULD READ THE POST!

Use Tamiya Clear on Tamiya paints and you will get a better finish.
