Pearl mix of 4 different pearls and clear glossifier. .. first try and I did not enjoy the texture or the inconsistent wettness. I would think that's from not having much experience with it. I'm a much better painter with conventional bc/cc

I used a conventional gun with about 4:1 thinner. If I were to do it again I would probably thry exactly the way you said. I have an hvlp gun with a 1.5 tip that I think would work perfectly for this application. Maybe I should try again?

For those of you that have dipped the whole car, how well does it hold up over time? Along with that, when you do eventually remove it, how easy does it peel?
What gun do you use with the HVLP setup? Reason I ask is because my car I need to do body work and I'd like it to be presentable until I can do a bc/cc paint job in between.

Thanks man! The kid loves it and it's a blast to see him ride it. Just wish they had all these options on a power wheel when I was a kid lol, I had a custom painted Bigfoot power wheel. ... I met Q from pimp my ride at a NOPI car show and his son had a escalade with custom paint and interior. .. brought back so many memories I had to do something for my son..
