That looks good dude, cant seem to spot out any orange peel from clear, you used spray gun i assume, what specs of the gun nozzle and what ratio did you mix the paint? Thinking of spraying my bonnet next month, getting tired of green and black ><"

[quangsuke]

Mixture really depends on what paint you are buying. We used a 2:1 paint:hardener with 10% thinners.
Orange peel can also happened if your compressor is dropping pressure. None the less cut it
Back using 1500 wet and give it it a clear and buff it up.

ah okay then fair enough, cheers for the tip
