I get a lot of **** from the guys I work with about my paint, but a lot of complements from people on the street... What do you guys think of my paint (it is textured and flat).
Thanks,
Mike

...as my car is due for paint and I am interested in seeing how that looks in daylight, up close. Looks neat/interesting so far.
How easy is it to clean that type of paint when carwash time rolls around? Thanks.

Yeah, definitely need new pics. Can't tell much from those.
It hides all of the dirt... Real easy to wash, no need to dry (does not spot up). I've only hand washed it, but on other cars that I've used the paint on it is fine for machine washes.
As for spraying it is the easiest paint I've ever worked with...by far. It also hides a lot of imperfections, so that I was able to send more time going faster...

Is it textured on purpose, if so, why the need for a texture?

You painted your car with truck bed liner ?
I guess at least... it's.... durable.

An old friend of mine did that to his Bronco 4x4. Great for trucks not cars.

Wouldn't the texture slow you down?
Ideally, I would like to have my car covered in dolphin skin, so it can slice through the air/rain.
Different is always cool, even if it isn't asthetically pleasing. well in most cases at least.

I think flat colors look fine on smaller "detail" parts - but it looks like you were too lazy/poor to put a topcoat on.
Anything that hides dirt/easy to clean just has a 'lazy owner' vibe to it.
I'd much rather see a high gloss finish that looks 10 ft deep...but then you'd actually have to spend some serious coin on that.
For a couple hundred - it looks decent. I wouldn't pay a couple thousand for it though.

I guess you have the whole workhorse/sleeper look going on. If you start beating your friends itll start looking cooler to them. people like stuff that wins
