thx guys.

update and need help

minor update, no picture. just paint panel line(mild, not too cartooning i think),wetsand,rubb and a few wet coat. final wet coat actually.

help! after finalcoat still have mild orange peel, do i have to :
1. wetsand-rubb/polish-decal-clearcoat-rubb/polish-wax OR
2. decal-clearcoat-rubb/polish-wax.

thanks.

This is a very interesting project. Great work so far, looking forward to seeing what you do with the interior.

[rsxse240]

For metallic paints, I'd suggest (if it has a LOT of orange peel) to sand the orange peel down, apply one more coat of paint to revive the metallic, then decal, clear, wet sand, clear, wetsand, polish

for a decent non-metallic paint, I'd do decal, clear, wetsand, clear, polish.

I always put at least 2-3 coats of clear over my decals to prevent rub through. and wasting decals as well as paint.

NissanSkylineGTR98 : thanks, 4 the interior still thinking how am i going to do. not enough interior reference

rsxse240: thanks 4 the tip. that's really helpful.

But anyway, done with the decal.
