Paint your Laptop - Project: Big Red

Step 7Final Coat: Ultra Gloss

Final Coat: Ultra Gloss
Whew, that's a lot of work. You’re almost done!

Notes:
*** You may want to use something stronger to protect your masterful paint-job. Maybe something a littler heavier like a laqor or varnish? ***

*** Depending on what you had in mind and the type of paint you may have at your disposal, the following steps may differ from what you require. ***

*** Use the same painting techniques you've mastered in the last step. ***

This glossy semi-protective paint will need a longer period of time to dry before your ready to apply another coat. I waited four hours between each coat, applying three coats in total.
