It looks good. Nice job.

Nice job! How did it go? Meaning did you have to fight contaminants or anything since you didn't have a spray booth? It looks great in the pictures.
:thumbsup:

Very nice, what a milestone. :thumbsup:

This is my 2nd car painting in a garage. My 65 chevelle was my first car in a garage and i had more trouble with that car as far as little dust particles. I learned alot from that experience like blowing things down, weting down the whole garage. i mean even the walls and covering things up with bags. This car came out a whole lot better:willy: .its not 100% perfect but its nothing i cant get out of the paint with a little color sanding and buffing. I painted my 69 camaro in a booth and it was the same expirience just to give you an idea.
Thanks guys for the compliments.:thumbsup:
One thing im debating on is wether to paint gloss stripes or semi gloss stripes. im torn in both ways. i like the gloss stripes for their clean look but like the semi gloss cuz ill be diffrent.:_paranoid .
Any ideas or coments?

Looks like you did a good job :thumbsup: My 2cents for whatever it's worth would be "semi gloss" but I like to be diffirent :unibrow:

looks great, I may have to take my car to you for some paint.:unibrow:

looks awesome. gloss stripes

WOW! Car looks GREAT!

I'd vote for semi-gloss, too. Read up on it though, because I've read some posts that say they wouldn't do it again because it is harder to maintain than gloss. (I don't have any idea what types of products they were using.)

I like semi-gloss stripes. it gives the car a more menacing look

Thanks for the insight.
For what it's worth I vote for semi gloss stripes.:thumbsup:

satin or semi. if you dont like them, you can then buff them to a gloss.

Camaro looks great !!! I know this wasn't one of your choices but flat black on the stripes. Gives it a track car look............

Thank you guys.:thumbsup: You guys have given me some good ideas and yeah i will most likely go with semi gloss or flat. I want to be diffrent. Also i know i have drag wheels and tires but this car will be an everything car. I will be getting diffrent wheels in the future, and will post pictures when the car comes along......;) again thank you.......

what white is that lol.
