    Thanks everyone...im feelin a little sick today or something (may be the pollen). I got the numerous dents in the fenders worked out. Got the fenders primed and guide coated. Alomst done with the driver door. May have it primed tonight. All thats left is blocking the fenders and pass. door, prime driver door and guide coat/block it, and start working on the hood and hatch. The bumpers wont need a work so those will just be straight up prime/guide coat/block and they will be ready for paint. Already have the rear bumper sanded down. Chris is supose to come down tonight and help me so hopeful we'll get a good amount of work done. I already painted the fuel door and put it on and put the glass in the mirrors. I'll try to have pics up tomorrow night. Hopefully i'll start painting the doors then.

    In the pic of the fuel door, you can see the nasty orange peel i was talking about. Hurray for wet sanding But everything else turned out great.

    It really depends on the car. Higher end cars will spend more time on the paint to make it look better. If you really hate the orange peel on your car you could just have someone wet sand it and buff it.

    I need to get it resparyed anyway so I might just wait till then...I mean there is not too much wrong with the paint except for everyday 85SB road things like chips. now the major problem in my paint is my whole front bumper. Ever since that kid threw PVC pipe out of his car about 7 months ago my front bumper looks like shattered glass. I'm just going to wait until I have time and an extra car and try and prep the car myself for paint. Just need to learn how to do it lol.

    Almost all cars have some grade of orange peel. its on a scale of like 1-10 (10 being similar to the surface of the orange and 1 being glass) I believe most mass produced cars have some orange peel cause i think they're painted by a machine. My moms $50k STS has a good bit of orange peel. but for some reason my accord is a 1.5 aside from the swirl marks.
