Cool thanks for pointers. I had same problem on my side mirrors, but at least partially disagree that they don't smooth out a little bit. My side view mirrors definitely look better now than they did when I first did them. It took a few washes etc but they are pretty even now.
I am not so worried about it looking like a perfect paint job, I am more interested in the protection as I was getting some real dings from the track. Willow Springs is basically a desert filled with sand and round pebbles. Every time you go its like someone throwing a bag of marbles at your car. If you really inspect it, yeah the irregularities are noticeable. Maybe I will try smoothing them out a bit on next coat(and drinking less Turkey while I do it). I noticed that Plastidip advertises a "Smoke" and a "Clear" spray product. I wanted to try it with smoke, but god forbid you call every store in the area and ask them to custom order it. Home Depot, Ace, and some paint store I called on plastidip's distributor list all refused to do a custom order without any real explanation. I will press harder on them next time. Nick, I used a one coat horizontal, one coat vertical. I tried to keep a steady distance of about 6-8 inches while doing the "walk like a crab" thing. Any other pointers for applying this stuff?
