Underwhelmed - unclebeast - 27-02-2017

[img][Image: 20170227_145420.jpg][/img] Car Paint match (yes right) for Metallic Aquamarine (MOSU).  what a total waste of time and money that was...It`ll have to be the thing I see every time I look at the car then...
Ah well...once a shed always a shed.

Have you lacquered it?

It's it's not a great match but it rarely is on ancient, faded paintwork.

RE: Underwhelmed - unclebeast - 27-02-2017

RE: Underwhelmed - 1616six - 27-02-2017

Needs way more flatting/polishing, looks unlaquered
