Nephew's first attempt with real paint
We let him do it on an area that's not gonna show too much. I'm thinking he did pretty good. What do you think?

Re: Nephew's first attempt with real paint
He's still working on the tailgate. He'll probably be paiting most of the truck anyway. This was just to build his confidence.

Re: Nephew's first attempt with real paint
The only way to learn is by doing. I started when I was 14 on my first car. Good Job.

Re: Nephew's first attempt with real paint
That's a great first job. I see no runs, or orange peel. You should also teach him to wet sand and buff then retake that picture.

Re: Nephew's first attempt with real paint
Wish I could paint like that! Every time I tried to paint out here the
 dust would get in it.

Re: Nephew's first attempt with real paint
Looks good. That's one of the first sections I practiced on too.
