Sanded the orange peel out of my paint!
 
I've seen lots of pictures of lots of shiny RX8's on this forum. Being the competitive type I decided to put you all to shame and eliminate the orange peel from my paint. I have pic's of the front end and trunk, I'm still working on the rest. It has taken me about 6 hours total to do the hood, both front fenders and the trunklid. This is a picture of the front fender and drivers door side by side to show a before and after. The fender is on the left and has been sanded and buffed. The door on the right is untouched.

Here's a shot of the trunklid with the garage door reflected from above for refrence lines.

Here's just the fender. You couldn't do that with all the Zaino on earth! I'll post more pic's when I finish the whole car and get a few coats of Z2 on it.

You may all bow to me now!! Vive la Spongebob!! :cool:
