Painting my new front end
5/25/11 First time using my new best friend. This was SO MUCH faster than by hand. Took like 20 minutes!  No before, but here's the after.  |

Looks like you are getting on nicely...for some tips and ideas on how to blend the paint and show others what is involved, can I recommend looking for videos by a guy called JIMMO4LIFE on Youtube.
He has got some good videos on there with text subtitles to explain as he goes. |

I know I'll have to blend some because it's definitely going to be noticeable. |
