Today I took it all out, sanded with rough paper to get the bumps out, then wet sanded it with 440 grit. then primed and wetsanded 3 times. It looks very nice. Im sure the paint will come out super smooth this time.

Regular spray paint will be alot harder to clean. And there is no such thing as a flat gloss lol.

The smell of ricer blood is strong within you my son


Sorry, I had to.

Spraypaint and Real paint are far different. He's using real quality paints, which aren't going to flake like spraypaint, and cleanup will be as easy as the outside paint on your car.. It's the exact same stuff. (Wipe down)


Green GT: That paint looks awesome on the interior. Nice job!
