A lot of you guys have asked about the air compressor I used. Here it is! <a href="https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-QUIET-TECH-26-Gallon-Single-Stage-Portable-Electric-Vertical-Air-Compressor/1001014062?cm_mmc=shp-">https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-QUIET-TECH-26-Gallon-Single-Stage-Portable-Electric-Vertical-Air-Compressor/1001014062?cm_mmc=shp-</a><s><i>c</i></s><i></i><s>prd</s><s><i>tol</i></s><i></i><s>ggl</s><s><i>LIA_TOL_153_Pneumatics-And-Compressors</i></s><i></i>-1001014062-<s><i>local</i></s><i></i>-0-_-0&ds_rl=1286981&gclid=Cj0KCQiAt8WOBhDbARIsANQLp97Rn3hGlj5of632gOAH7Yn5-hc39jJAkZv8hv_EBslR27EjaZTBdmcaAtu0EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Just a tip from a painter. Use a larger sanding block that covers the whole surface during all sanding phases including the primer and you will have a flatter surface for your piano gloss. And sand in between all coats of clear. That's how pro automotive painters get their smooth surfaces. Love the color...

A tip: When the compound looks dry, just add some water. The cutting material is still there. Saves you compound.

Spray bottle for the water really helps. Mix in just a touch of soap makes it a lot easier to wet sand as well 👀

Honestly, I think you did a marvelous job. Long ago I get my degree as a painter, and I love how people like you take the cow by the horn and go for it. If you have much orange peel I advise lower pressures and watch you viscosity of your paint. But anyhow, I love your video. You explained step by step, nicely, how you get the things done. I hope people are inspired by this video and go building themselves. Great job. If there are any misspelled words, I am sorry. I am Dutch and try to do the best I can. Sincerely, Bert de Vries.

If your wet sanding use a little washing up soap in the water, really helps, breaks the water tension down 👍

Try turning the air pressure on the gun up more on the last coat of clear. It will help with the orange peel. Great job look really awesome.

Awesome. Im going to try a pair of BMR speakers in Piano Black. Gives me great confidence seeing how you did this. Nothing crazy in the way of tools, and I have all the polish I think I'll need from the car. Thankyou very much.
