I'M INTRIGUED - I just bought the fender!!!

This sounds like fun. I'm sure it's not as easy as it looks on the various "Chopper" shows.

OK, here come the questions...

First off I'll state right off the bat that I have no wrenching or paint experience whatsoever (except for my current project involving wheels, rotors, brakes, handlebars, signals, tach - I'm just diving in)

Did you have prior experience with paint before you tried it?

So what were the steps involved? Sand off the black, under layer, glitter, over layer, clear coat?

What did you use to smooth it out after sanding, paint, etc.?

Did the auto shop help you out with the details?

How much did the paint go for?

Which paint did you need more of?

Thanks piper1

p.s. Everyone else, please feel free to chime in!!!
