it looks pretty good, a good first effort indeed.

Nice work Peter. I repainted the hood, bumpers, and roof on mine & ran into the same issues you did. My compressor was too small & I constantly had to wait for it to re-gain pressure. I also had the orange peel. If you put enough clear on it then you should be able to sand & buff out nicely with a rotary buffer. I thought I was going to have to re-do mine, but it cleaned up well with 800 grit, followed by 1000, then 1500. Just be careful of the edges...

Nice work. I like a person who can do the work himself and is not afraid to try new things. Great job!

Pics are coming in a little while but currently I'm wetsanding various panels and using my DA buffer and some 3M compound to shine 'er up. I may be able to salvage my work yet! I may have to reclear some of the worst areas to bring the shine back but we'll see.

BTW - what was the compressor capacity you used? (You said it's not big enough)
