dont jus spray the paint or brush it on, do it properly. prep the light and continue to sand up until the clear coat.

Can you do a DIY on how you painted your corners?

wet sand with 600 grit (what i used, worked good)....then clean off with soap & water...wipe it down with rubbing alcohol

then spray on 2-3 LIGHT coats of paint..or keep going until theyre the darkness you want


its just that simple kids!
