Ok first purchase this - its the Fibre mixture
http://img217.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img217&image=cimg03931rc.jpg

Or this brand
http://img82.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img82&image=cimg03954oz.jpg

So take the paste out
there will be a tube of red paste
mix it with the fibre
the mix will make the fibre mixture harden within minutes

after that it would look like this

Atleast let it dry for two hours la ok
Use sandpaper , recommend u to get 2 , one rough one finer one..
so first use the rough one and sandpaper the fibre
It will look like this

the after u sandpaper dont cry if its not smooth
here comes part 2
u have to buy this putty about 10 bucks only la

Just apply it again on the surface
i did a small mistake in this process.. make sure the layer u apply is very very thin .. it will dry fast no worries , thick layer wont dry the insides AT ALL wait one day also not dried..

Next : picture will post up soon
next step is to use sand paper , sand paper off the putty out smoothly
and spraying mounting spray and spray black .. still in process i am dam tired man

Tip for drying : use hair dryer ler :P

First Layer of Spray paint
very very very thin layer.. u can still see the white white parts visible
after 30 minutes
but just very thin layer then use very fine sand paper and just gently sand paper it.

then wipe with cloth let the sandpaper dust go off
you want to use masking make now and put papers to cover the other stuff
spray another thin layer .. and after 30 minutes sandpaper it lightly

then next pic is the next layer .. after this no more sandpaper laa..
start putting in ur layers hehe

how ? looks good ? the sandpaper thing is so that the spray sticks nicely to the bumper and no kedut kedut paints here and there.. and if u dont use the sandpaper technique there might be some oily places where the spray paint wont stick on. another way is to use Mounting spray for undercoat .. but sorry i dont have it :P

How is it ? shining up already ?
If you want it to shine more please buy Clear coat..
i dint buy it cos i used black spray which has gloss effect already..

You can get ACE HARDWARE gloss black or krylon black gloss also ..
but depend what colour car u got.. mine is metalic black la so gloss black also ok la
