UPDATE??? :):)
Keith
the first attempt reacted with somthing and made the paint go crap, and i forgot to drop off the new paint at the garage today. gonna be done tomorrow now. this is the trouble with painting in poor conditions
i had a bad reaction with a pannel wipe.... had to wait a week for it to go off and then sand back.. then only wiped with 2K thinners lol
