shiny time!
CLEAR COAT FTW!
so i finally got my car clear coated, 2 coats in the same day ; ten minutes in between.
my 1st attempt was so horrible, i didnt even take pictures of it. sanded it back down which took forever and today was my 2nd attempt.
today's work was the best ever!
clear coat x 2:
2000 grit wetsand + 3M rubbing compound + orbital buffer = PRICELESS.
the result:
u can clearly see the difference, with my silhouette showing. (yes im topless in this pic) LAWL

AWDALBERT SAVES THE DAY!
Albert (AWDALBERT on the forums) came over today and rolled both my scoobys at such an amazing price, u would have to be high as a kite to pass up his services at such a good deal. now, with that being said i was very pleased by his work and his skills/talent.
up first was mr. silverthorne, the daily driving hoe-bag. this was just the typical normal fender rolling job done on mr. silverthorne, nothing really speacial but it really did help because i had issues with my 38+ offset wheels that were on this car which had some heavy duty rubbing.
and last but not least, the beast that sleeps, BARNEY! yah i officially nicknamed him after that gay purple dinosaur after i recently just dissed him in my previous post. i think i was tipsy when i wrote that. but anyways, barney went under the knife big time, the fenders were rolled and smashed together shut, pancake style (as mr albert likes to call it). then the fenders were pulled outward, giving it a "bubbled" look...........or should i say blistered fenders.
thanks again albert!
