It looks great! It looks professionally done. Different, but well done.

the black car has it sanded in down to a 2200 grit paper then waxed .. for the stripe , if I do one will be the same way . ?
anyone have an opinion on this on my car ?
looks good /bad ? better without ? better with ?.

Personally I like the traditional Datsun side to side stripe better. Also I like the look of fatter ones better than skinny.

Looks good on the scoop.
Not the two shorties forward of the scoop

I liked those too . that's traditional for these ? good to know . I've scratched the down the hood idea already . I've pulled the two fat middle ones off and have the pinstripe ones left . it's interesting . needs something maybe somehow . haha

that's what my brother said too . I've pulled those first . now the fat middle part leaving the 4 thin ones . playing with it while I can to see before I commit . it took some doing to get a paint I like . I don't want to ruin it already . . learning to slow down and breath . lol . patience of Jesus, mechanic car work takes . haha ya know .

[Lorna c]

with the middle out and I have some chrome pinstripe I'm going to lay down next to the thin black ones , and check that out next .

I wanted life to the paint to replace the gloss clear coat . I got life in the paint for sure . I'm really enjoying the variety of colors I get throughout the day and night . it's fun and always different .

[Lorna c]

I'm just wondering if the color needs to be broke up somehow is all . if it looks better broke up , not a big blurple slab , or as it is ..

[Lorna c]

or keep it like this ?

I love the purple..

I love the purple..

I do too . now . took a minute to like it I think because I kinda just winged it . got the idea tried one way , found this stuff , tried it, then got more and finished it ..
seemed like too much at first , is why I tried the stripes .. but I pulled the stripes . it looks better without . . it's really kinda neat paint .. I never get bored with it cuz it's always changing.. there's heat-sensitive paint out there too . it's like a mood ring . I thought about that for a minute , but I didn't like the colors that it came into..
