Hi guys, like i said i started painting my car friday, and i did the front bumper 1st to see what it would look like, when i got the paint i ask the guy what mix should i use with this paint and he said 4 to 1 with 5% finners so i did that and the bumpers not come out to good as the paint looked to thick
ad: so today i did the back bumper and and did the 4 to 1 but i all so put 4 parts finners in it and it seem to have come out better and time will tell when its dry.any way heres some pic,s of the front bumper all done, it can stay like it for now, as im going to save and get the car done next year any way.
