nope havent color sanded. not sure if i will, i only have one coat of paint and im sure sanding would make it even thinner. although it would definetly blend the streaking a little bit better. im pretty content with it so far.

Well, that's all that matters, then.
I asked because most folks ROLLING Rustoleum ( i see that you rattle canned it) sand it to within an inch of it's life and get some amazingly clean results.
Looking Good Max!
The Paint job looks sweet, is it hard to get it to look that good? jay

As a side note:
Thanks again for the rear hatch for my 62 you sent me several months ago. It needed only a little TLC and paint, and installed just fine.
Of course, I used real automotive paint, neener neener!

Not a problem on the rear hatch.
For I am only 17 and have a lack of patience I would not be able to take the time to use a gun and lay the paint nicely
looks great,
thats exactly what I'm going to do this spring on my new 72.
same color too!

well it was primered before because when i orginally painted it with primer i had planned on painting it very soon but never got around to it. so i just kind of scuffed it up with 300grit and gave it a fresh coat of primer (because the old primer had glazed over) and then sprayed the paint on. it was easy because i had done all the body work previously
looks great max!
did you take the sliders off and paint under them?
i like the black trimmed out also
