    2 pac is easy to spray alot better to work with than acrylic, it is ilegal to spray 2pac in a residential area but don't let that stop you hahaha. A decent gun and some practice its easy to pick up, the rest of that car was done in a booth the engine bay was done in my shed turned out really good only got a few specs of crap in it happy with the outcome though

    I've heard 2 pack is nicer to spray, comes out shiny off the gun. Im just very wary of the serious health risks involved by spraying it when you aren't in a booth. I like not pissing blood

    Regardless, awesome job

    Really liked the car as it was, and I really like where it's going... well done, can't wait to see it.

    You make me sick.

    Looks fantastic - really well considered and love to see the k-jet finished with the nice braided fuel lines - I really love the look of snaking braided lines over the engine.

    Putting me to shame with progress (and skills).
