This Project has turn out to be a . I finally found a day (saturday) to paint the BRT (buick Regal T-type). the body work is flawless, perfectly stright , and all the corners are clean cut.I can not find a fault in the preping work, just the color change this car has taking me two week of prep work in the body shop (friends). Yesterday i shot some of the painting cots (6 coats) and my buddie help me with the rest (12 coat). He`s a pro so i mine was at ease. i did not really like what the blue pearl did to the black, but i love what it did with the white (PPG color). In these two picture is what i am talking about.

the pearl seem to turn the black into a aqua color. I will see if the color take to my liking, or i will o for the black. This is project is 90% complete. With the hardest part complete (painting). I can now can start bolting all the parts back together. The car still have to me block sand with 1000 grite scoth 3M pad and buff. I can`t believe this paint process too 10 hours, with the best paint PPG has to offer. LOVE IT.....i will have to see about the color
what you guy think?
