yeah that's what they are .. got em from the auto parts store. the paint doesn't specify but the clear says that if i wait more than an hour after applying the color i must wait 7 days. basically, according to the instructions, i could have finished the complete job in an hour but if i wait longer than that is when i have to wait. I mean, i'll give it a shot if you think so cause i hate waiting (i started 2 other cars for that reason). the color started drying very fast ... in minutes it wasn't even tacky and it'll be 3 full days today. every bit of the milky effect went away and it actually looks pretty good with the exception of orange peal. i mean, for my first go and thinking i messed it up, it's not half bad ... or i should say, i'm surprised. thanks for the help btw.
