You can say that again!!! The positive that came out of it was that at least I had color on the whole car, and I learned a lot about what not to do when painting.
My next post will be the second round which came out much better.

Talking Paint: Round 2

Second time around came out much better.
10/09/2024 was when I did this.

Here's a video right after finishing the base coat. From here I'll unmask the stripes and apply clear to the entire car

Tough break on the first round of painting going so poorly. Glad you persevered.

I do like how you gave the stripes a pattern. That looks good.

For some odd reason, I can't get YouTube videos "shorts" to work properly. It always comes up with an error.
I guess I'll stick to pics for now.

The second time around came out much much better. It wasn't a windy day, and I bought the correct speed reducer. I also added a couple of puller fans on the exhaust side to help pull the overspray out. I had to sand the entire base coat with 800 wet, and then re-mask it all, then shoot it. By the time I was finished it was getting dark and the temp dropped from the 60's to the 40's in the booth the minute the sun set.

Base Applied



Clear Applied

I was trying to fix the video for you, but I couldn't find it on youtube based of that id #.
