How come you are re-doing the section that was already done?

well i sprayed that side with acrylic enamel and not knowing better i cleared over it right away. well acrylic enamel needs alot of time to cure, like months before it can be cleared. it is a cheap paint, soft finish and long cure time. so after almost 2 weeks it was still soft and i didnt want to make the same mistake on the other side of the bay so i stripped it down and started over. spraying it with dupont chromabase this time.

at least you chose to do it right way man... I'm sure your gonna appreciate it later on when paints not burning off your engine bay haha... A lot of people (including myself) would probably be like "eh fuck it"

Good job it looks sweet
