That's actually on of the better paint jobs i've seen actually.

I think I am gonna go over it with fine steel wool and give it another coat. I should have used primer.Yes I used a rattle can. I can paint on steel pretty good. guess not so good on plastic.

Use scotchbright (like steel wool but it's some kind of plastic) It's the stuff to use, it's cheep too. Remember to clean it good before you repaint.

[musclecars4life]

try using normal 800g-1000g sand paper and wewt the paper then sand an area and dry it off. then do that for the rest of the car until it ALL looks dull, then you can go back and spray another coat on there. wet sand with 800g-100g paper between coats. and then wet sand between clear coats also. after you spray your final clear coat DONT sand it any more. i recommend 3 coats of everything. wet sanding REALLY hepls make it look smoother. remeber to let the paint dry fully before wet sanding, and sand litely as you dont want to sand too much off or the original color will show back up.

When you mount the wheels, all you have to do Is lift the body using a few spair gen 1 bushings.
