How do you like the paint. How many coats of silver are you going to put on?

the pain is awesome to work with and it really does go a long way so far we have used 1/4 of the can and we are doing two coats of silver and one coat black and I am actually considering using the undercoating in a can for the bottom what do you all think?




I would cover as much as possible. I bet the black will look real good too!! With all the work that you have done it is cheap protection.

At the rate you are going Doug, we might see you driving the Doug Bug at the next get together. Keep it up!
