Did that include blasting the old paint?

i reckon they look good,a kind of slight simarlarity to metalflake.there is a massive difference in quality then.may i be so bold as to ask the cost of
the last one.and yes compatability of laquer is important,do you think one was cellulose and the laquer was acrylic in the first one ?

yeah. this was three or four years ago. it was the cheapest color option offered. i thought it would be darker based on the sample, but i'm pleased with it.

had i a garage, i may have tackled the job myself with that spray paint made for car engines. it may have cost the same in the end.
