Default Paint coming along nicely

Been painting a 78 TA SE. Experimenting with single stage paint, I've found thinning it out 10% helps it lay much flatter.

These pics are after cutting and buffing from 1000grit to 3000grit, using Meguiers 105 and 205 compound, a white 3M foam cutting pad, and a black polishing pad.

Looks pretty good so far. I'll grab some more pics of the entire car when I can get it in the sun. It's been raining/snowing for days now.
