Default Painted engine cowling

Etec cowling had some deep scratches from previous owner so decided to spray...........

As with most all jobs, preparation is key !!
Spray can results can be good IF done correctly.....

Short learning curve to good finish.

I had a tire blowout on my dually n messed up the paint on the front fender....
I duplicolored it and it came out great for the most part...
The color doesn't match 100% but nobody notices it if I don't point it out..

I'm fairly sure I could have feathered it in if it hadn't been below 0 outside... I was playing hell trying to get the shop warm and dry.
