Default New Paint

After 7 years into my Mustang project I've finally gotten it ready to be painted.
I'll be loading the car on my trailer and going about 300 miles to my buddy's paint booth in northern Arizona.
Car will be DuPont Viper red....
I won't know what to do when it's all one color.........

I use to make viper red paint for kenworth til I got hit by the layoff, that stuff drove me nuts lol one of the best colors though was viper green, extremely sharp color but expensive. Hopefully I'll be making the stuff again soon.

I hope you are back to Kenworth soon too.
These car projects require some income........

You know I meant to reply to you but forgot til I saw all the paint posts lol but thanks, they really do require it but we'll see what happens. I used what I was doing to consider a couple new colors for my car, ones a deepish red but still pops, the other is a red similar to mine now but has metallic in it. Those are my 2 top choices so far
