Hey Manny awesome job! Did you use a solvent-base or a water-base paint? If you have the used the water-based paint how was the quality of the finish compared to solvent-based paint. I know water-based paints have been around for a long time and some OEMs use them but I am not sure if the ability to match colors is better with than with solvents. Thanks.
