So I decided to spend a little money on my car so i bought an SS hood for my Camaro! The hood was originally silver then somebody had a "good" idea to paint it black but they did a crappy job. In fact it was so bad it already started to chip, down to bare fiberglass may i add, all a long on the front lip(pictured below.) So now I'm wet sanding all the layers of paint off and will have to re-prime it with epoxy primer because the previous painter took off the jell coating..
There is also a spot of rust on the rear driver side quarter panel and the mirrors are terribly sun faded into a yellowish orange
so I'm going to have to repaint the whole car.
I will keep you guys updated on my progress and upload photos daily! Hope you enjoy
