wetsand with 400 and buff it up, will get rid of any spray marks and it will be shiny. Get some decent res/close ups. How are we supposed to see the paint in tiny pictures from 40ft.

I did that with rustoleum. Total cost was~$150 for all materials. I scuffed it down to base metal/primer with a scotch-brite (red) on an air drill. Fixed up the dings with some bondo, rattle primer, sand, green. I wet sanded and polished the bumper to see what would happen and it turned an awesome dark (between forest & british racing) green that was really shiny. Didn't think it would happen since used 'ultra-flat camo green' :)

I love how the mind of a ricer works. if they don't like my fagtastic baby blue and red JDM rims they are jealous and hating.

not just you.

There doesn't seem to be any gloss at all on any of them. All of it looks...plain.

If you want gloss then pay hard earned money for it. if you want something that will be one tone and cover rust, then a rattle can is your tool.

Anyone who grabs the rattle can and expects anything more than a rattle can finish is a tard. its a rattle can, you will not get Maacco quality out of it and why would you want to shot clear or anything over it, it's rattle can job.
