Looks cool as hell. Almost a Mad Max kind of vibe. The window surrounds sort of contribute to that as well. I’m digging it, man. Nice work, especially for your first body!

The masking is always the hard part.

What he said 1st body consider practice. My 1st 3 bodies were practice back in the old nitro days
Your first looks good
You could always do a flat black on the outside since it's a on road. Just a option? I'd keep it !!

What flat black could be used? I might give it a shot with an old body.

Anything flat black for lexan should do. I wish years ago there was a flat black. My second body I tried masking and 3 colors. Looked like a rainbow had a bad night and puked on itself.

It looks great, don't sweat it not lookin perfect. I'd rock it.

When you spray it on, keep several inches distance and keep moving after you stop spraying in a steady sweeping motion. Thin coats at a time to prevent runs.

That will do it. Thin coats. If it takes 5 or 6 coats to cover, that's good. And in between coats take a walk around your block 5 times(in case you walk fast) to make sure each coat is dry

Something like this?
What if you spray the clear and then this? Or spray the flat clear and then a different black? Would it make the black look more matte?

Unfortunately it's not made for lexan bodies. It will flake off.
