Oh no, you didn't? I'm not even ganna touch that one. Yeah, I'm coming down to check out BARRETT JACKSON. Never been. And I'm picking up my car from Fesler. I had left it there so he could work on '64 Chevelle hood hinges. They look sick. You're painting looks great in pics. I bet you are still learning every time you do it. That is a great talent/skill to have. That's one I have never attempted/tried. The whole wet sanding thing.....

Yea, that's what the guy at the body supply place told me. It's a plastic bumper on an '01 Deville. I guess I will try some flex agents when I re-paint.
Thanks :thumbsup:

Thanks, im still learning, but i figure im gonna save a lot of money in the long run by painting my own stuff. Ill be at Barrett Jackson (a.k.a. BJ! lol) too probably either on Sat or Sunday. Youll like it for sure, there are a TON of awsome cars there. Maybe ill see you there.
