    It never gets old. I still can't believe the paint job with this machine. Ever since your subaru project. Can't wait to see it complete.

      Thanks man, appreciate your support from the start. True, this machine paid itself longtime ago. still more clear, polish and I think it will be ready. frontclip at least

    Love the black emblems. I'm picking up a 90 SI this week!

      Good luck and hope you enjoy it. Those are fun cars to have but expensive to maintain. But fun Trumps it :)

    Nice job as always. but I agree, it may need another clear coat before polish. but it is looking good for a cheap DIY fixer

    • @saltherookie

      It'll come out ok, but will be even better with more clear for sure

    Have you thought about wrapping ? it is less messy and you have not done it, so give it a crack. you're getting better with paint, keep it up

    • @saltherookie
      @saltherookie  2 года назад

      I actually thought about it and maybe in the next project. Since I have already started the paint process

  • @preludehonda4528
    @preludehonda4528 2 года назад +1

    I think you should have sanded a bit more before the paint so when you wetsand before clear, you have enough surface to work with. spray more clear. will work out better

    • @saltherookie
      @saltherookie  2 года назад

      I think so too, but what I should have done was prime it first. That way I get to see the flaw and rectify it before the base coat is on. We learn :)

    I think if you paint the Honda emblem Gold, it will look better. or you can juts buy a new one :). not bad of a paint job

    • @saltherookie
      @saltherookie  2 года назад

      Painting gold will not look as good as buying the god one. My aim is to use the material at hand, not spend more. This project is dragging for far too long and is costing me lots. Need to finish it up

  • @andyhondanation8005

    Not bad job for a DIY. but I think you need to wetsand before polish. after another coat of clear that is

    • @saltherookie
      @saltherookie  2 года назад

      If I add another clear coat, I will for sure. Just to smooth the surface before polish. Most likely I will anyways as I bought the material 🤪

    why you painted in parts? wouldn't it be better to paint the whole car at once ?

    • @saltherookie
      @saltherookie  2 года назад

      As I'm still trying to find out what is wrong with the engine, painting it as a whole will be hard. So working on it part by part is easier to handle.
