Powder results

I have the tarp on the front of your car. Even though you said you didn't mind, I'm still trying to keep as much off it as I can!

Once i take it for a spin all the powder will be off of it. Also i saw a MX6 with two rear conquest wheels. IT was retarded as hell, but the guy was mex so whatever.

I almost took it for a "spin" taking it up to brandons house.

Well I had to take off my wrinkle black cover because it had a crack in it and oil was leaking out of it. I'm going to try and repair it with this aluminum filler stuff I have.

But since it came off, I had a Hyundai cover laying around that I'm going to be throwing on the car. I've been trying to figure out how to make a color to match the Black Cherry color of my car. My idea was to use a transparent/candy red, but with a Gloss Black base coat instead of the typical white/silver/chrome base you'd typically use with a transparent/candy color. Here's the results. It looked like absolute crap before I coated it. I was actually a little worried on how it would turn out because of the poor condition the surface was in and I couldn't get a lot of crap off the surface because it was just caked on it, even after a couple hours of prepping it. But I think it turned out just awesome. If you're just looking at it dead on, it looks pretty much like a gloss black (like you'll notice in the 3rd pic), but once it gets some light on it, then you see the maroon look (like in pics 4+). I think I'll be doing all my piping this color as well. I'm real happy as this was my first attempt at using a transparent powder. Let me know what you all think!


First 2 pictures are just of the gloss black base coat. Then from pic 3 and on is with the transparent applied. In pic 3 you can see how it basically looks like gloss black. But then when I turned the flash on in pic 4, you can see the maroon reflect.

One of these days I'm going to be getting an HVLP gun so I can start ceramic coating as well!

Looking good! You should have ground off the hyundai though! Are you going to polish the letters?

[Halon]

Nah I'm going to leave it just as it is. I think they HYUNDAI on it is kinda funny personally! I to find a fitting to go in the pass side of the cover where there typically is a fitting for blow-by to exit!

You don't even have a Hyundai block in yours playa.

The block I bought, that got rebuilt and is in my car now, came with this cover, so psshhhh.... bitch please!

BTW, I was out by your shop today, and stopped by, but no one was home???
