today i got pissed and da'd the door left roof panel, and both front fenders , and shot em again , this time full fanspray 40 psi aand opened the fluid valve all the way thenturned it one turn back in , i shot the garage door ontill i got my speed and pattern nice and went at it, no runs and minimul orange peel, it sanded rite out wet 1500 . didnt have time or energy to buff it tonite .so i worked my pedestalls on the spoiler to tilt it even with the top of rear quarter instead of the window line.if i get it buff and waxed tomorrow, i did a test buff of hood roof and tops of fenders, and deove it around some already i can already tell i need bigger rubber rides like rail car on nitto 205 45 16, but ive already don 4 burn outs through second gear, also i dig the on demand second gear scratches and the yellow is so bright its alarming in the sun, it atrracts a lot of attn, im loven it thanks trevor
