No, the color coat actually came out OK, it was pretty forgiving being a solid color. Had one spot on the hood where a bug landed, but I managed to sand it out with some 600-grit and touch it up right afterward.
The clear however is a mess, lots of runs in various places and lots of orange peal on anything not horizontal.
I did three coats of clear, and obviously heavy in places, so hopefully I have enough material to support the color sand and buff, but I'm struggling with starting that process.
I will admit that as far as I can see so far, the underlying body work is pretty straight, at least to my untrained eye.
