Try this on your next car

[Benjiboy28]

I have just played around with one of my cars in photoshop and this doesn't make a HUGE difference, but it looks a bit nicer. I call it "Clear-coating" your car. What I do is paint and decal the car, then on top of all that, make a layer of white, just plain white, then go in photoshop to EFFECT>CLOUD then just make the opacity under 10%. again, it looks to me like a clear coat and would work great on a superspeedway car since they to that on the real cars for Talladega and Daytona due to the high speeds. again, just something to try if you want. give me feedback if you try it.

I like the sound of it anyway to do this with GIMP?

I just made a white layer with about 5-7% opacity and got close to what he was talking about.

John I hate so sound like a noop but how do I apply opacity percentage?

Click the layer and find in the layers pallete a slider bar labeled ocity (sp) and slide it until it gets under 10%

It's in your layers box underneath where it has the mode options mentioned at.
