   Huh?  I  didn't  think I sent attachment. All I did was reply...as far
   as I know anyway.

Michael, you need to take care not to send things as attachments.  Attachments

============================
Interesting you should mention that. I got curious a few years ago and wondered
 how Krylon would look. Had a spare TR3 door and a can of Krylon that had to be
 10 years old. Decided to try an experiment. I roughed up the existing paint on
 the door, wiped off the dust with a paper towel or something, and sprayed it B
RG (more or less). sanded again and resprayed. Then, I wet sanded with some fin
e paper...1000, then 2000 grit maybe? Can't remember. Finally, I used some poli
sh of some sort on it. Was rather amazed at how it turned out. Certainly not pe
rfect, but much better than I expected. Maybe it really is like Fred keeps tryi
ng to convince me...there's nothing about a bad paint job that a little sandpap
er won't fix! :)

Heck, I painted a Lotus BODY with Krylon.  Did a lousy job, too.   Drove it any
way:

I bet Rob has it looking much better already.
