also one of the car chopped up! This was hard to look at everyday at the shop.

The hood had a ton of spots that needed to be fixed. Someone had already cleared over the gel coat. The clear was chipping, but so was the gel coat in spots. So I sanded it as much as possible and then he smoothed everything out with filler. Came out sick in my opinion and the car looks so mean in person now. Not bad for a 100$ hood!
So do you actually work as a painter or just dabble?Quote:

Had a couple pieces of dirt in it, but we buffed them out. I hoping to make the transition to full time very soon. I work 3 days a week there right now and it almost matches my full time job....fail I know.Quote:

That's not too bad, I have to talk with a local guy, he may do it for just the cost of paint, but I'm not sure how the quality of his work isQuote:
