    Oh haha I thought you meant the color. Yea I'm stripping this one back down. I don't like how the paint came out. It was the way i stripped it that made it come out like that. I know what not to do on the others now. Just gotta fix this one first.

    Did you use a scotch brite pad?

    I did that on my R fender and came thru like crazy...

    But on another thought....Might want to try hand sanding it to a nice shine before you spray it. It SHOULD come out better. Im doing this to a valve cover currently, and hope it comes out strait.

    Aircraft stripper and I just tried to smooth out the powder coat that didn't want to come off. I'm just going to have to redo it and take it all down to bare metal.

    Hmmm... price?
