Great job. I assumed you were just going to tape it off and skip the door jams but you really took the time to do it right. Great job! I have painted a few of my cars in the garage. Prep is everything and the quality of materials (paint) is very important. Not many more projects in life are more rewarding than spraying your own car! bravo

Love watching paint dry especially when it’s a R129 500sl mines a 93 best car I have owned and I am saving the planet by not owning or buying a new car people admire it and ask how old it is and are surprised it’s 30 years old who wants a new car when R129 are built so well 😎

You say you're not a professional, you have very good gun control for an amateur. I'm not generally a fan of colour change, except for bare metal, full body shell but the new colour does suit the interior trim much better and is very well done.
