did you wet sand or polish it at all
Actually all I did was paint it. Now don't be fooled by the pic. If you see it up close and in person it is less than perfect - but for me it was good enough.

What I did notice is that the areas where I had it down to bare metal and actually primed it then painted it - it actually came out with a rough texture. The areas where I just ran a scotchbrite pad over the old paint it actually gave me a more smooth finish.

I sure you have already found them, but there are several threads on rattle can jobs and many have actually taken the time to wet sand to get a better finish. For me is just wasn't worth the effort.
