Love this look especially with the blue flakes in it!! Can’t wait to see it on the skyline!!

Much love and respect to you and your channel Keegan.

Heat immediately after laying it to release the air to make the final sand and polish easy

If you compound the fender with some Maguires compound it should give it more shine

Nice job 👏

Perfect bro 😎 👍🏽 thumbs up Siskel and e Bert

Very good 👍

And you just saved yourself 150 bucks. Nice

Probably saved a lot more than that if I knew what I was doing haha sadly my 2nd fender has been a huge failure but I've learned a lot so when I do the hood here pretty soon I think I'll have it down

Did you use a fiber glass roller? When you add the chop and roll it out it make for a lot less sanding, way more level and might save you some time.

I did on my first fender and the 2nd I used peel play Sadly the 2nd one is requiring way more sanding because I didn't do the fender roller

Hi, if you spread a thin layer of the same resin with a squeegee, swipe both ways you'll fill those pinholes, then light sanding and continue with coatings. Great video, thanks.

Hey thanks so much I appreciate that! Always love to see another Keegan 😂 Heads up make sure you let the resin get tacky before putting on the chopped carbon and also make sure you are mixing equal parts resin/hardner My 2nd fender completely failed and had to do something completely different with it 😅

how did you create those flakes of that color? did you already get them in that size and color, or did you cut and color them yourself? thanks

It's blue foil flakes from Amazon it's not the best but for a proof of concept they work

Like the touch with the blue. White, black forged fenders and some small random bits of blue would make for a sick color scheme on the skyline.

Better still, pick up a cheap paint gun; I've found even the cheapest, crappiest Chinese gun beats rattle cans hands down, much more controllable and you get better flow and a decent fan spray pattern. (I tried re-spraying the hood on my Mom's car with cans and it took a day and about 10 cans in total, and still looked like crap. Stripped the whole lot down, got a cheap gun and did it within a few hours, including prep, with a much better result, I think the paint worked out costing less, too.)

Are you talking about clear coat or the resin? The resin I definitely agree I should've used something else It wasn't horrible but I had a ton of issues with it on the 2nd fender I'm actually doing the same look on my Supra spoiler with a different resin and it's given me much better results and will be getting legit clear coat

Bro, u need vacuum bags and release sheets. It'll save you so much time and headache, but mainly it'll save your sanity. You might still have a few pinholes. Fill them in using a syringe and needle.
