It's knowing that it was once clean that matters right? Maybe you can apply some sort of sealant to help keep it clean.

well there is no mud down here but its a show car and weekend car but its been painted for a couple months and hasn't been cleaned once since and still looks like that even though its being driven every day
Besides the paint is much smoother than stock and rinses off very easy -------------------- |

Looks good...... not to burst your bubble, but like the other guy said.... i puddle and its dirty or even a rock kicked up and its chipped. Sometimes if the surface isnt prepped right, when you spray it with water, the paint will just peel off....
If you got time for your car to be down for a week or so..... should consider powdercoat. Looks like paint, feels like paint and is more durable. FYI. |

I agree with 94celicagts. Keep the rude comments to yourself or go to a soccer forum.
THE not TEH, if your dyslexic...then I apoligize. That's how my moms students write THE in her elementary dyslexia class. And by the way the car looks awesome! Even if it does get dirty it's still impressive/unique and has cool looking colors. You'll always appreciate the work that was put into it. |

like i said guys, the car won't get driven daily, or in the rain, and i have yet to see a mud puddle anywhere near where i drive, and all of it was prepped correctly so if i ever do have to spray it it will be fineand actually all it takes is some cleaner, a jack, and a creeper, it all wipes down really easy

and thanks to all who gave good comments and yes i have put a ton of work into the car
i'm actually supprised the car runs and drives, as some of you know its been over a couple years and was at the point at one time where there was not a single bolt that could be taken off, every part has been removed and prepped for paint, and after everything was sprayed (its not from a can) it was all put back together again there is alot of fabrication work in the engine bay, but i want to get it cleaned up and everything situated befor i post pics of it, i am waiting on my new spark plug wires and a couple other small things i have a couple pics of the engine bay i posted before in that link if you look for them -------------------- |
