I've been doing paint and body work for 32 years and I'm impressed, that's some bad *** airbrush work. I've always disliked most rattle can products cause I've seen them cause alot of problems, but that clear is kickass to come out of a spraycan. I've seen the stuff advertised but I haven't tried it yer, but after seeing this I'm going to pick some up, and keep on hand for small odd jobs. It would prob work well for restoring headlights, or other small parts. Most people would be surprised how difficult the simple things like taping up those teeth straight are, and how easy painting the rivets, and shadowing can be, with a little practice. Still it takes ALOT of natural talent to do that yourself with little or no experience. Great job!!

Thank you, the hardest part was getting the two sides to match lol. The only thing with that 2K is once you activate it it's only good for a day or two

Is all that airbrushed free-hand? Or, did you tape off some of it.
How did you do the rivets and steel panel lines?
