    I like your paint color choice. Is it something you picked out of a book, or did you find it on a car?

      Haha I'm the opposite.

      I have that dark red color tank, and I'm trying to move towards a Black/white theme!

        Actually, I had an idea of what color I wanted. I was hanging out with a buddy of mine who has a body shop, we were talking of colors when he walked over and went through his "extras" paint cans. He then pulled out this color he called Dark Cherry with flake and sprayed it on. I picked it up 2 days later and it was still tacky, only because he mixed in alot of hardener.

          I would think more hardener would make it cure faster??

            Hardener is not made to dry the paint, it's used to make the paint more resistant to dings and chips
