Re: The phoenix rising
Looks really good! I like the sort of crinkle to the finish.

Re: The phoenix rising
Now that looks killer! Nice paint work Dom.
You must have the patience of a saint to do that masking so precisely!

I can't take the credit for the work. I have a friend who owns a body shop and he really likes working on hot rods, muscle, and Vettes. We used the VHT Wrinkle for the color but put it over a textured base coat. If anyone else is interested, I can give you Chris' # here in Schaumburg, Il. His shop is BNC Auto Body and he even took a couple of dents out of the passenger side header collector. |
