Default New Paint

Got my TA back the other night! Had a friend of mine paint her at the local community college. Gave her a quick bath in the dark so I missed some spots lol. Needs a good detailing. Starting to put the interior back in today.

Thanks! College is central Florida community college in ocala. I was kind of nervous because they use nason base/clear but it looks great. I just hope it holds up in the Florida sun.

I read a lot of crap online about nason not being very good paint. The only other car I had painted was with chromabase and it looks great 11 years later. Anything advertised as value worries me. The price difference between nason and chromabase is unreal.
