Re: Lemony fresh repainting

A few times we have painted our car at the track with tempera washable paint or house paint.  Great team building exercise.

That is nice too.  Orange is supposed to have texture so it looks more pumpkin like....

This is my fender that I painted, all kinds of stuff happening on it. I made up the base with a PPG Omni Victory red with some pearl added to it, I then based over it with some Hobby Lobby red glitter followed by three coats of shop line cheap clear. I sanded it and recleared it using a Glamour clear last night. To Much?

Blew the budget buying expensive tape that didn't work as well as I had hoped
