another attempt at painting
Was not satisfied with the first attempt of painting cab so i sanded it down without going through the first 2 coats to help with orange peel. My second attempt was much better with a lot less OP. I'm sure with wet sanding it should be alright. With 4 coats on it, i hope i don't sand past paint. I sure do dread all that sanding and buffing!!! Ignore the unpainted parts on dash, the darn rain want stop long enough to get back to painting

Looks really good Jimmy. How much anti orange peel did you add to your paint ? Practice makes perfect. Keep up the good work, you'll only get better each time you paint one.Good job!

Looking good
