Christopher J Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) If it's not too bad knock the roughness down with 220 (very lightly) then 400 paper to smooth it out then hit with another wet coat of the black. Edited July 31, 2013 by Christopher J

I was going to finish her today for my friend but the hood just snapped like a cracker when I was removing it from test fitting. Do you think revel would replace it? Thanks for looking and helping me vent.
