Im going to be out for a while.

I'm going through a bit of trouble here. I have to put this project on hold for a while.

Testing out on my trunk lid

I woke up this morning to find clouds out in the distance. but nice and clear in my area. After painting my trunk lid with the new brightside paint, I went inside for about 30 minutes to have breakfast with my girlfriends parents. this is what happened in 30 minutes..




Luckily, the intense Florida heat, hardened the outside layer before the water can do any damage. As for the paint, a little orange peel but great reflection.

NEW Paint, Interlux Brightside

Interlux Brightside paint is a marine paint. Its got Teflon and kind of goodies. With this paint supposably you can full coverage on 3 coats. sounds good to me! Thing is with this paint, it cost $25 a quart! I will be practicing on my trunk lid for this one.

Seventh and Eight coat - 3rd attempt

Damn, This is what im talking about. 8 coats in and this what you get. Now you have to understand something. This picture of my hood is SOAKING WET. When the hood is dry, its not as shiny. Thing with water is, its a tool to see how your hood would look like when you polish it up.

You REALLY want to click the picture to enlarge

Fifth and Six coat - 3rd attempt

No issues here. After wet sanding, the surface is REALLY REALLY shiny. Cant wait to get pictures in.

Third and Fourth coat - 3rd attempt

I'm at complete coverage. Ive also wet sanding for this post.

First and Second wet sand - 3rd attempt

The camera Ive been using belongs to my girlfriend. Her father went on vacation and took it! Sorry bout that, no pics!

Anyways, everything is coming out much better.
