So I thought I would have a go at doing one door myself.

I masked up a bit of the door cause I didn't wanna get overspray all over. I then had a bit of a line where the primer was so I used 800 and 1200 wet and dry paper.

Then I used a genuine ford spray can and this is what it's like now.


What do you think I've done wrong and could I redo the door so it looks better??

May thanks.
To me the top coat doesnt look the right colour, seems lighter than the original. How many coats did you spray on?
You can buy from a paint spraying suppliers things which look like a big pipe cleaner made of foam which you spray onto where the 2 parts meet and it feathers the paint in avoiding a hard line which you get with masking tape. There may be a video of them in use on youtube.
