I've never seen or heard of a hood quite like that.
Was this a coating you put on, or did you find a chalk board hood? winking smiley

my friend sanded my hood and painted about 3-4 coats of chalkboard paint onto it.

It's a beauty, I especially love those wheels. Mmm.
I could never make mine into a rolling chalkboard though, I'd be too afraid of someone going a bit overboard.

Plus the instinctual urge to yell at people drawing on my hood would prove impossible to suppress. winking smiley
