Future mods are going turbo charged, paint, new exhaust system, converting rear brakes to discs, and hopefully a 6-speed tranny swap. Not exactly in that order.

the only way for dull chrome is to not polish it after dipping the part.

wow 2.0!!! material today is high solids high solvents and or water based now the max!! is 1.6 for primer, 1.3 or 1.4 for sealer base and clear tiger striping is caused by moving to fast then to slow and your fan patteren and overlap is way wrong

and no mettalic colors are easy to match the color red can be horrible to match your striping will never go away unless its repainted

next time use 1.4 tip for every step of the process, correct air pressure, corect fan patteren, not to much or not to little overlap

way to much info for me to type out and my hands are killing me
