Trade secret lol, just kiddin, its called blocking back and the method is quite simple, get a foam sanding block, cut a peice of P1200 to suit the block, wet surface, then rub in circular motion
P1200 between coats
P2000 cutting back - final finish
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
so its like a flow coat for clear...just making sure u werent painting over glossy paint lol..what are you reasons for doing this if your going to cut the car back and buff it anyway?
as for the 2000 paper...yeh..ive seen ppl use 1500 lol..looks like its been buffed using sand lol
ok VL-RACER, lol, ill make sure that its clean before pics are taken of her should be finished saturday or sunday

good job, maybe you should do the rocker cover in the same hue, would look awesome also the bumpers and strips in asteroid silver, other than that good sh*t mate!
Yeah, bumpers etc should be asteroid silver for sure. Bumpers and lower half, asteroid silver.
Engine bay would still look silly with a green rocker cover, the rest of it needs to be cleaned heaps more haha..
Not bad though, I was going to go this colour a fair while back, that green with a blue pearl. Never did follow through with it, as its way too outrageous for me.
