well, her it is. took some good time to plan, it was a bitch to get that mask done. ... and it sucks.

pic of the desired look

and this happened. as laquer laid down it screwed the whole thing




i used brush on method and it ruined it. i guess it will be getting new color some time in future damn

Ah man, nice thought... There's no way to go over the chipped areas again?

just go over the design a couple more times.
It'll be ok.

You can always sand and change the colour all together

Dude sorry you had problems with the paint! Saying that I can't even tell you how many times I have worked on a car for hours and in the end just messed up the paint job.

I would just strip the whole paint and start over at this point that is if the chips are real deap if not see if you can touch up just the chips with putty and then paint over them. You might even try printing out something on decal paper and applying it after you putty?

just some thoughts again sorry ya things got messed up but to make a great cake you gotta crack some eggs!

Yep, been there, done that, sucks, huh?


If you gotta sand it down and start over anyways, it couldn't hurt to try your best to fix it first. See if you can level it off by carefully wet sanding with some 800 grit. Then dab in some color in the areas where it spread out, or repaint it.

thank you Pimps
yeah i'll look into saving the damn thing. it was supposed to be a quick paint job, and it derailed me from some other projects i'm working on right now.
i freehanded the mask and i don't have a printer, so it makes pretty imposible for me to recreate the whole thimg. the chips of black paint are spread around and sealed with clar coat i'm thinking the all new pain will fix evrything

Yep, been there, done that, sucks, huh?

yeeah, it sucks. not the first one, but sucks just the same.

Hit a craft or artist supply store, talk to them about the finest brush they carry. (1 or 2 bristles) Support the body firmly, good lighting, use tiny amounts of paint with the tiny brush and it should be pretty straightforward, though time consuming to save.

yeah i'll give it a try. i just don't know when can i do that, as i stoped being freelancer and got myself a job at mtv. looks like they will make sure i got no time for anything but sleep
