So I decided to do some painting today. Figure body work is gonna get done eventually so if I mess up who cares lol

wanted to hide (did not get rid of at this time as this is just a cover up) the rust. sanded a fender, one of the rear wheel wheels, the bottom of passenger door and my rear bumper, also redoing my handles to hopefully match better.

Will go snap a pic here in a bit. No clear yet using a heat gun on low about 2 ft away to help dry it out. again don't care that its not professional I just wanted it to be blue.

Yea, That blue is a pain in the behind to match. Looks pretty good to me. Certainly good enough for a 20/20 vehicle!
