1200 sandpaper DOES exist! It dont exist at HomeDepot!!! I told you that you hadda go to your local Autobody Supplier for most of your needs! I told you to call me and I would have walked you through the paint procedures....
When you pm'd me back saying you would call if you had any problems, I thought to myself...."That would be too late".

Color matching usually comes down to the base color your using.  It's all about the base..... usually. Stop using Home Depot and Lowes for your painting needs. Go to an auto painting supply shop. They have what you need.

Everything is fixable bro. Just relax and take the advice of the others and get in contact w/ the people here that can help you out...

BTW- Nothing wrong with trying to do things yourself, even if it doesn't always work out.I like to try and do things myself. And I've F'd up many things along the way.

Pics? WTF did you do? Are they all cracked? I told you how to do them, did you put to much primer on? Send me some pics to my email Biggie5663@yahoo.com

ordered over 100 bucks worth of color-rite paint(didnt even really match) and waited a week for it to arrive because i figured i could paint my own inner panels and some new gsx-r mirrors,
but it came out so f@ckn bad that i almost lost my sanity right there in my garage!!!!!

...

 

 

and i guess now i gotta come up with another 400+ dollars to deal with raceready
another lesson learned the hard way

Why didnt you send them to William at raceready in the 1st place?

[99'busa]

[jboogey84]

[Scipione420]

What did you sand them with?? it looks like the raw plastic is reacting with the primer. Im still looking at the pic and cant figure it out...

 

[jboogey84]
