Oh darn, been there done that :bash: :wall:
I like to paint a body on a Sunday night ,then it hopefully has a week where I am busy at work and don't F with it until Saturday
Just put it away for a bit, relax and do the interior work.
I bet it isn't as bad as you think :D

So i walked away and came back to it after a bit and i am happier with it now i finished painting all the details black, clear coated it gave it a little buff up and a light weathed wssh to tone down the overall look now it looks alot less toy like all that will be left to do on the body is to matt clear some of the black trim. Not sure if i should have the wheel arches gloss or matt finished any thoughts..???

This is a cool little car
