So I color matched my grill, took my time sanding between each step, did my best to keep lint and hair at bay in my basement. All things were going great till I laid down my clear, went with a light tack coat, than a few nice and heavy wet coats. Had a few sags and runs but nothing i can't wet sand and buff out. That being said it definitely yellowed out. Hard to tell how bad until I get it against the truck. I have a feeling this is how it's gonna be, but is there a slight chance it may gas off and clear out a little. For a rattle can job in my basement I'm proud to say my first attempt at paint was a success aside from yellowing. Nice and smooth, glossy and even. Pigment is off but live and learn. Clear was the hardest to lay down without going too wet. Bleh. You can see in the last 2 pics the pigment is off. [emoji107]
Any ideas or suggestions, like I said I have a feeling I'm stuck with the "off" color, but I'm open to ideas. For 75 bucks and my time it's better than chrome!
