Well it came out pretty good.I had to redo a small spot because the fricken neighbor cat got in and jumped on the rear and of course it was still tacky at the time.I wanna kill a fricken cat.
Well after the paint cures for about a week then I will buff it out.

A cat? A whole cat? You are a better man than I. I would have killed that mother------ in a heart beat. That's just wrong. I mean, I love cats, I'm a cat person. I have two of them. But if one of them did what happened to you, they'd be dead. Just like that.

Good luck with the paint. I want to see photos. :yesnod:

well if I could ever catch that fricken cat it would be dead.I dream about catching it and cruching it under my leg and sticking as fricken knife in it then breaking its fricken neck.And of course this is same neighbors that complained about my dogs so I fenced in my 2 acres.But no it's ok for thier damn cat to run loose and sleep on my vehicles.I've thought about antifreeze but figured I'd get arrested for that.
