[Gareth]

it looks well but i aint happy as its my fault ive ruined the paint when flatting down, so im gonna re-do it before billing due to scratches in the paint OLDSKOOL no's what im on about,

me and my mate had a cleaning session this evening and took a few snaps of them 2gether

Nice pics mate, what happened when you were flatting it down then?..

 

[Gareth]

must of had some grit on the paper or ive rubbed to hard, theres scratches all over in the paint carnt tell from standing back but when up close there horrible

Could you not just cut it back again? Shame to have to paint it again, but then after all the work you have put on might as well do it right.

 

[big e]

Real shame mate im sure you'll sort it an it ill look spot on..

 

[joycey]

not sure mate, id rather just paint it again, or supply a pro and just pay him to paint it, then have oldskool back to polish it again all before billing,

its always nice to see a finished project, i look forward to seeing yours finished

When I had my rear quarter painted I noticed some very fine grooves in the paint, sounds similar to what you describe. only seen in certain light when looking for them though.
