Where abouts did you spray it, I was under the assumption you needed a booth to spray 2pac properly...

You picked a good day to spray it - got an oven thrown into the spray for free!!! for those of you not in WA, we had 40.5 degrees yesterday! Looks great from the photos Steve.
You can now get isocyanate free 2pac paints which don't require the booth with extraction fan for spraying, I've used them and they finish off well. Be sure to use a non silicon buffing compound if you need to buff it, to avoid the swirl marks you'll get from buffing.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback, i am pretty proud 
anyways
answers for a couple of questions, so far, 3 cars, an 18r-g, and paint, everything has cost me 1400. And made 1 good car from all parts, plus having heaps of spares.
And corona, im sticking with original chrome and stuff mate. Wouldnt have it any other way i like the look of it.
THe trim tho, i will have my own creative part in the sense.
Other than that and the interior, all original for now.
Thanks guys, steve
