yeah because shops around my area charge $400-$500 lol so i literally cut their price in half because yes it can be tricky and you have to know what your doing but i try and help out the guys who dont have much money and still get the same quality as the shops lol. valve covers i charge half price too lol

Ya on some pieces I did maybe 6 or 7 like the steering wheel bezzels certain surface types will drip easier than others. It's weird if you want it glossy you have to make an even wet appearance on the final coats butnnot too wet or it won't turn out glossy. But then again I was spraying my stuff out in 55/degree weather while it was humid as **** outside lol so painting for me was a little tougher. But I like the stuff I am gonna rebuy and try my wheels gloss black.
