Default kind of late but...

have you considered the spray on stuff(for wheels)? the bimmer guys use it as it's cheap and seems to last and is an easy application. i have no personal experience w/it as i bought black rims.

Man I painted it last night and it was just a complete epic fail! I was kind of hoping for the whole ghost color not the gloss black color and that is the way it turned out. it doesn't look bad but it was a complete waste of time. I also noticed that when I was applying my second and third base coat it looked really spekealed like how when you smoke your taillights with night shades. Sorry for the negative feed back but I will upload a pic and let you guys decided.

Alright I will take pics of it tomorrow when I get up and around. I personally think it was the way a was spraying the actual paint itself. I think I was to far away from it

Yea that's the thought I had on it as well. I thought about wet sanding it, and buffing it to see what it might do. IDK though? It looks better in the betters. I know that if i wet sand it to much though it will scratch the chrome so let me know what you guys think
