    Can YOu Say MASKING TAPE>> sure I New you Could

    Well I gotta say, A little more time and some masking tape and it would have looked a bit better, no masking I'm guessing no fine grit sandpaper to rough it up so it won't start peeling off.

    it was sanded and primed before painting. The pieces I could take out of the car got a little more TLC before painting.

    Time

    Hey Max I can certainly relate to the time thing , why is it the stuff we'd really like to be doing has to take a back seat to the stuff we'd rather not do. Good luck with your progress.
