my new painted body - 04-03-2007, 07:18 PM

well i bought a new body for my gtx and i figured i would try to paint it myself. ive done it before but ive only dont one solid color and they all came out like crap. so i figured id give it a shot. what do you think



also what do you use to remove the glue from the window masks and to remove overspray. Do you know were to buy decals also since it has no light or grill

Nice fade bud! There shouldn't have been glue left on the windows but it looks like there was, look at OOPS remover, just don't get any on the paint!!! The overspray should peel off, try to scratch at it with a fingernail and it should come up a little bit to where you could peel it off.
