Curtis0784 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 hi all, well got all the spray things and never sprayed in my life did the front bumper as a practice and think its come out very well. Will be updating each time iv sprayed next on list is back bumper then the rest of the car and then wheels. What do i need to make the paint shine more? Here pics of before and when finished http://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/01bumper-f-as.jpghttp://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/02bumper-f-as1.jpg http://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/03bumper-f1.jpghttp://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/04bumper-f.jpg http://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/05bumper-f-s3.jpghttp://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/06bumper-f-s1.jpghttp://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/07bumper-f-s.jpghttp://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo207/curtis0784/08bumper-f-s2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
