rattle can paint can be glossy if you buff/wetsand it correctly, and use GLOSS paint... not all rattle cans are flat....

So how is this holding up without the clear coat? I bought the same paint for my s13, except in white and im thinking about skipping the clear coat process.

Also was wondering, did you wait a day or two between wetsanding and then spraying the next coat? or did you just jump right back to it after like 4 or 5 hours of drying?
