I don't like red anymore....
I'm already tired of the red, so I'm gonna paint her charcoal gray...
I did get it looking nice, I just don't want it red anymore.
My camera's like 30 miles away, but this is the last pic I took, I was explaining orange peel to someone on another forum and what buffing can do.

Im guessing he went throught the whole process of painting it red, realized mistakes he made or things he would do differently and wants to redo it.. Or, he has extreme ADD accompanied by chronic indecisivness.

maybe, but maybe he realized red draws the attention of every cop...statistically proven! the orange peel effect sucks, some good polishing will take of that though...but I wouldn't want a bright red either. Do what you want dude and post some good picks...I'd vote for a Black or white pearl coat

RE: I don't like red anymore....
I think white pearl looks so nasty when it ages.. It just looks like a dirty white car. Black would be a good idea, or the grey.. I just cant imagine going through that whole process again.. I like red, but from the looks of the pics he posted the paint just isnt "flat" enough, it went on too thick from the looks of it. But whatever floats his boat.. I used to paint my dirt bike once a month years ago.
