We got lucky and there really wasn't any wind or anything and didn't have any issues after wet sanding... took about 20 cans or so...and now I have to do it all again because someone keyed it into oblivion last night

Doesn't sound like a random key job, but a personal attack on your property because someone hates you.

Any ideas who it was?

Agree with this. A random (douche) person would likely be satisfied with just keying the car. Hope you find out who did it - though I also hope you didnt do something so terrible to provoke this.

Liquid_G · 05-23-2011, 09:40 AM

wow.. you sure you didn't get any overspray on a neighbors house or car, and they decided to get a little payback?

Solus · 05-23-2011, 10:20 AM

1) I dont have any neighbors noone lives in any of the places beside me... 2) The list of people it could/may have been is a pretty long one. I am kind of one of those people that you either really like or really hate... I dont think I know a single person that knows me that has a mediocre impression of how they feel about me.

kenchan · 05-23-2011, 11:09 AM

hey my driveway paint job turned out great as expected too.

got my raw Ings CF splitter, after a full prep and UV coating, polished it up and now rivals bodyshop work. my neighbors came by to check out my work and could not believe i did that in my little garage using a rattle can. hahahaha. it's all in the technique.

Solus · 05-23-2011, 12:03 PM

I dont really have time to do anything to provoke something like this... 4 jobs, wife, newborn, I am pretty much at work or at home the majority of my life. Worst thing I can think of is taking someones money playing poker but I can't imagine any of the people I play with doing it so I really dont know.
