looks good man, i can apprciate the shine from regular spray paint. You should have probably done more prep work though before painting it.  I can see every blemish, screw "indentation", and seam on that box. 

The shinyness is nice but it really brings out the flaws man.  Dont take offense man just constructive critism.

you honestly cant see where the screws were? 

im not gonna break out arrows and circles to show what i see.....not tryin to hammer the guy, maybe the digital camera is just a little too sharp.  I know my digital camera will pick up flaws in my work that i cant see with the nekkid eye...i just filter them onez out ;)

you also have to remember that black, especially GLOSS black will show every and anything.....ever know anyone or own a car with a black paint job?  If you did you would understand.

Yea, the 1 box were you can see the screws, I don't have much of an expectation for.  I doubt I'll even wetsand it.  It was very rough in the begining and I probably should of spend more time in prep.  I'll take some critism for the pro's any day.  That how one learns...  I'm hoping "box A" turns out well.  I had a much better base to work from compared to the other box.  I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it turns out...

I remember posting something on the net, one of the pics of the Caddy i did, there was a slight problem with somethin in the suede that i didnt see till someone saw the pic on the net and told me.  I was like HOLY SHIT your right......and i had it fixed.

These damn megapixel cams are the shit man they show everything.  Sometimes its better to be a good photographer then a good installer LOL.  :D

Haha, don't worry.  It takes a lot to rub me the wrong way. 

Right now I'm putting these projects on hold.  I'm working the desgin for my new setup.  Atomic AP/SPL 12" in the reg cab.  The port is giving me some trouble but hopfully I will have it finished by tonight.  The sub should be here monday and then I'll probably start another work/build log...

Ok I started wet sanding. Here are so pic's of my progress....

Pre-sanding this was last hit with 600 grit and then had 2 layers of paint put on..

Wetsand1.jpg

Another shot of pre-sanding.

Wetsand2.jpg

Plenty of water and 1500 grit paper.

Wetsand3.jpg

Its hard to see but the top has been finished. About 8-10 mins worth of sanding...

Wetsand4.jpg

Another after-sanding shot...

Wetsand5.jpg

This is how I start off the wet sanding. Water is just spread over the box and then I use the sprayer to get a good coat of water on the box. Next setup is to start sanding...

Wetsand6.jpg

I kept a constant spray of water when sanding so that the sander was never on just dry paint. I'm letting them dry off a little right now. That and I don't have any rubbing compound yet (it'll be here this afternoon). More pics will follow as I continue with the process so stay tuned!! I'm hoping for some good results....
