looks great Brian especially if it is only your 6th job. By the time you get to ten, you'll have people standing in line for your work.

Looking good! Do you use different paint or add flex agents for the bumpers? I ask because the last bumper I painted cracked; the body shop told me the base and clear I got already had flex agents.
Thanks

i dont add any flex agents to the paint for the plastic parts. most modern paints are engineered to allow some flexability. if the part you are painting does a lot of flexing your may need to add some agents.

Nice job Brian. Looks like you're keeping busy. Good thing you don't live up here. You wouldn't be painting right now. 10 degrees and tons of snow. I can't wait to get down to phx in 2 weeks and feel some warmth.
