Looks pretty good. The only thing I would think would be some clear or maybe some sanding. Then again i'm in the same situation.

Re: rattle can paint
Just a suggestion, dont use duct tape while painting, doesnt leave a very good edge and most of the time it leaves residue which has to be cleaned off later.
That said, in your application, it doesnt look like it matters to much. Just a suggestion from a fellow painter.

Re: rattle can paint
i agree, it also looks like you're going to have some lines when you remove that tape that will be visible.

Re: rattle can paint
the tape line was just for a test area when i do the rest of the car i will do one panel at a time i was wondering if i paint the car should i wet sand the paint smooth before i spray the clear then wet sand the clear again the buff or polish then wax is this correct
