Finished.. I've circled the contrast lines on the paint. I'm going to have to sand this back and select a paint that is less metallic and more gloss. Pretty happy with it other than that, the scratches are gone. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j89/wcorbitt/f6d81efe-3f57-4593-807e-ce3b511ddb11_zpsc...
