Looks good. Where did you get the spray? I've tried the local Home Depot/Autozone and they didn't have it.

Looks great! I've been meaning to try it out. I hear they just recently came out with gunmetal.

About 5-6 coats, and no glossifier. I'd recommend going to YouTube and watch a couple of how to videos from dip your car. Com. You'll learn a lot of helpful tips. Let us know how it goes!
