black...theres

glossy black
matte black
and textured black

for all three of them i have to do a different proccess than the gold...black has a tendency to act a differnet way, thats why graffiti artists try to stay away from black, and if they use it, they have something under it.

decide tho and tlel me

I don't think it's the clear coat. I think it's the fact that I ____ed on yours before it was dry thinking "oh, you getting the same turbo kit as me, eh...and the same gaugepod...I'll show you!"

Well, you can hae Hieu paint your rims and then they will be better then mine.
Mine are textured and look SWEET! but their already scratching off cause of the wax that brian had on them. Plus when I visit my father-in-law, he has a gravel driveway.

I'm thinking about buying my friends brand new stock rims and tires and painting them again! (or rather, having Hieu do another, clean set for me!!!)

O_O really?

i think it was the paint as well phil

the textured paint formed bonds that normally would adhere to the metal, but didn't because of the thin layer of wax....we can counteract that by removing all spray paint on your wheels without the use of strippers or the use of abrasive materials...that way you can still have a smooth but textured finish...the paint should come off pretty easily on two of the wheels..the other two it should peel off but in a film that breaks easily. thats because of the bonds that the paint created to hold the textured pieces of paint in the layer of.

best course of action is a chalk basecoat after we remove the paint..which i never had to do on any other wheel haha

=| did i sound as much like a geek as i thought i did?

anyways, theres only one problem.

the time i have now is very limited...schools started and i take 6 and a half classes this semester

5 at unlv and 1 and a half at csn

This is what I heard:
"qpowiue afpoije;lakj poaijep aposijf apoijepoa ijsdlkjpoivja;mapoijen apoija slkdjpoiafj epaoijf...I'll redo yours but it will take a while...apoij aosipoifj epaoijs fpaowiejpf;a paoisjef poi"
Did I hear that right?

I think I should get that nail and valve stem fixed first.
I really wanna get new tires, but my next spending should be on a clutch.
