    Ok, got a coat of green on yesterday. Not bad,no runs or fisheye just wish I reprimed the white overspray.It's going to take a few coats to cover. The solid color was easy but working with the metallic is a whole different animal.

    Yeah it's supposed to be the original color off the napa paint chart. It's close but I think the metallic gives it the difference in the color. I can't wait to clear coat wonder if it will be a big change.
