GREAT job!!! The car looks amazing. How long did it all take?

Wow nice turn around. I'm betting that from afar, that paint looks super wet and glossy now! Almost like if you touch it, it'll glob around your hands.

Very nice :dblthumb2:

That's amazing! Congratulations! Hope all went well.

APAD congrats on the newborn, My wife gave birth on 4/20/11 at 7:13 to my beautiful baby boy "looks like his dad :)" Hope you dont like to sleep.

[Crazy Amos]

That has got to be one of the best garages I have ever seen. You have Everything a Detailer could dream of....plenty of supplies and PLENTY of alcohol! That kegerator tops the cake my man!

I guess everyone in the neighborhood hangs out at your place! The painted walls and painted floor look really nice.

I had a feeling it was a nice garage but had no clue it would be set up like that!

Nice!
