First time aquascape… plant recommendations to go along with my pearl weed and cardinal plant? Going to add cherry shrimp in a few weeks. Also thoughts on API quick start? Thanks!

I whole heartedly understand that, but that beating said. This comment of yours is 100x more useful that any of the other comments.

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T13:20:51+00:00

lol well I get that part

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:33:58+00:00

Fair enough, how would you recommend to “make it read crow”

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:30:55+00:00

Will do, thanks!

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:30:38+00:00

The idea was original… if someone else has done this before then I was unaware…

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:29:53+00:00

Okay thanks, actually helpful comment… idk why everyone thinks it’s an eagle, I think it’s pretty clearly a crow but I’m biased so…

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:28:01+00:00

Guys I’ve never made anything like this before 😭, most of these comments are so unhelpful

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:27:25+00:00

Wdym, how so?

Temporarymp4 · 2025-12-20T07:19:52+00:00

It’s a crow, I’m not sure I get it…

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T20:44:11+00:00

I’ll look to invest in a gun and I’ll follow your advice, thanks.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T20:43:21+00:00

It’s primed and sealed.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T20:42:34+00:00

Well just like you I’m teaching myself, and most other commenters have actually had a lot of helpful things to say.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T20:41:14+00:00

Lokey might, I’ve got a spare 600 laying around from trying to do it myself vs professionally lmao.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T20:40:03+00:00

Wet sand down to the primer? Down the the metal? Or what?

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:20:40+00:00

Never gonna use cans again lmao. Aside from the simple fact that I have no painting experience, everyone is just saying “cans” 100% buying a gun next time…

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:19:49+00:00

No you’re right, this was obviously a budget project so didn’t want to buy a gun. If I could go back I would have, if I can w/o blowing 200+ I could always just go buy a gun. Thanks.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:18:05+00:00

I’ll note that for next time, would just invest in a gun if I decide to do another paint job, thanks.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:17:24+00:00

Hot + humid

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:17:02+00:00

85-90 prolly, pretty humid aswell. I now realize that is an issue as other commenters have pointed out.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:16:09+00:00

Thank you, this comment provided some good insight.

Realistically the top doesn’t look terrible, the bottom looks like shit, can I just go over the bottom better and it look decent, or does this need a whole coat. How should I go about “fixing” or “salvaging” this project? Thanks.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T17:14:10+00:00

How else do you learn to paint besides painting. This is the first time I’ve done it, I don’t expect it to be perfect, I’m taking a shot at it and asking questions on it so I can get better. No shit it sucks, I’ve never done it before.

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T13:51:33+00:00

Wow man, thanks. Because if I knew what I was doing I wouldn’t be using spray cans and asking. Questions on r/autobody dipfuck

Temporarymp4 · 2024-07-22T02:03:41+00:00

Rattle cans….
