Holy crap, you just got to love seeing paint go on. Now I'm all keen again to get into some more body work.

A bit closer to getting colour on. But still, what colour.

originaly i painted my orange car with a custom tint basecoat,added a fair bit of gold pearl to that base.then added pearl to the first coat of clear for a gold pearl overlay.however when i got the tubs put in they cut through my rear quarter panel with the grinder and the fibreglass front fenders and bonnet started to take a battering from the amount the car shook so i decided to paint the car again.Still used the same basecoat but no pearl overlay.just plain 2 pak clear.the green car (basicgreen)is a topcoat protec 606.turnpike green.no clear.less work for me.its nice to work with,little or no buffing required.amen to that.I have not heard of hok lime green,is it a new colour?

don't think that's the name of the colour, but it's a lime green like basicgreen but it's real pearly if you like wild colours this is nice it's been around a while
