i don't have ANYTHING to mix paint otherwise i would. carrying all the paint shit around would be a pain in the ass. If you have the touch up paint i can do it but will require more time because i have to wait for it to dry until i can do a lsp

hmmm. so we'll need to do a full out balls to the wall huh?
and black will show every imperfection, which makes it easy to detail (SARCASM) - lol my car is black too like i've told some people here, pricing is really tricky because what may begin to look like an easy job can get difficult very fast based on the depth of the swirls and rids. I'll pm you what i pm everyone. thanks for your inquiry.

PM me what you PM everyone too please. I would like to get mine fully done sometime in the next 6 months and will likely have you do it the first time. I would like to learn about it to thought so that I can do some of the basic stuff such as polishing out swirls on my own on a more regular basis.

and yes seth, if we get some touch up stuff i could help you out. I'm not familiar with the durability of the paint but we can try it out. worse case scenario it doesn't work and we're back to square one.

You know, I was thinking we need to have a Midwest or Chicago area chat thread. This is essentially what this one is, but can't much change the name of this one now. Maybe when we move the Meet information to a new thread we can create an official "chat" thread for all our BS.

Can we just change the title? If so, I would say do that after we have another Meet thread created.
