Harrisonburg ay? down at JMU?

I don't go to JMU, but I ride my bike through it a lot, trying to destroy all their pretty little walls. The traffic JMU generates chokes the streets, and JMU is like #1 in the country for stds now. So I don't even get the benefit of pillaging the partys lol.

Any update on how the wet sanding turned out?I might try this on my truck, if I can build up the nerve.

me and my bro sprayed his bronco has summer and it came out fine. Did you like roll it on with a paint roller you know that craftsmen sells spray kits for like..... 50 bucks that get the job done.. on well i say it came out preety good. i always pull out the paint thinner and my spray gun. i do 3 or 4 coats of paint and then 1 or 2 of clear coat. then i drive it for a month and wash it weekly. after a month i use mothers wax and it always lookd good. ill throw a pic up of the truck if you guys wana see the ourcome

the thing with rustoleum paint is that it'll fade.I did the same thing with black and it came out real nice at first, over time, it just faded out though.

It looks really good tho!keep us updated!
