RoboG2:
Beautiful work!  What did you use on top under the paint?  On the cp I've been working on, I've had a hard time getting the top super-smooth like that.  Congrats on the great results!

Trying to get the paint look like that took about 3 years off my life!  And since I'm such a perfectionist, I see every little mistake.  Between the primer, sanding the primer, the many coats of high gloss enamel, waiting for it to cure, sanding it with 3 different grades of sandpaper, trying to fix my mistakes, polishing it and using the cleaner wax... whew!  I don't think I'll be that ambitious again for a while.  Although i think having a compressor and the proper power sander would have helped.  I also wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless the have someone with experience helping, they have the proper equipment and they are in for the long haul!  Cheers.
