got it decaled today, and I laid on a few coats of clear to.
it still needs to be wet sanded and polished out in a few days.

This looks excellent SS.

man I love the krylon clear, I sprayed it about 2 hours ago and its nice and hard now. so I wet sanded and polished the body.

I use 2000 grit then the two compounds in the pic.

hard to show glossiness on white paint lol hopefully the reflections show up.
