im not bagging you here so dont take this the wrong way, but it looks like you didnt really put in heaps of effort into the preparation.. i can see lots of marks and bits of the origional paintwork showing through.. can you tell me exactly how you did the job, as i would be really careful cutting and polishing a car that has not been rigerously prepared.

im not having a dig just adding some advice and knowledge

Man that looks nasty!!! Cant believe you just mask everything up and paint... Ive seen some sh&t before but this takes the cake.... Wow It takes years to learn how to paint but you huys think its all in a days work.... Shows too.

If anyone wasnts to paint a car in sydney just let me know Ill do my best to make myself available... The less minis this happens to the better.
