First Paint Job: Bumper Repaint

8

My brother-in-law's bumper needed repainted and Lauren decided to take a shot at it. This was her first paint job and she completed it all herself. It turned out much nicer than I expected!

The front looked as bad as the back before she started..

After spraying the clear there were 2 small runs that she had to wetsand and buff. Other than that the way it came out of the gun is how we left it.

Thanks guys. I can't remember what brand of clear it was, probably something comparable to ordering the house wine at a restaraunt, lol but good enough for a free paint job. After it kept her away from the mustang for 3 days, she said she'd never do that again. Unless of course it was for herself!

We plan to try the Universal Clear for the next project and are anxious to do so!
