I still wish I had half your talent
I had a similar experience painting a 74 Buick Lesabre convertible years ago for my aunts then significant other. I was young and doing side hustle summers while in school.… man I had to paint that thing 3-4 times due to lifting issues not using a sealer , whole bunch of chit I learned the heard way. Even tripped over the air hose while cleaning my gun and splashed lacquer thinner across the hood that I had just sprayed. Was just cursed the whole way took forever and I just ate chit burgers and made no money on the job.This Tige is cursed. There is a line where I sanded the edge of that first batch of flake that somehow didn't get filled in after flake, 3 coats of gel clear, and 4 coats of automotive clear. So now I get to spray it a fourth time. I want to punch something.
