You mean like that?
Paint is this saturday, had a few hold ups and couldnt get it done in time. Got them [mick and rob] to do the jambs, under the bootlid etc and a few touch ups to save some time. Ill still be painting it this saturday.

Nothing to do with teasing dude, just nothing else worth showing - yet
As of last night. Its been cleaned and sitting in the booth waiting. The colour is worrying me if im honest, i remember being alot lighter.....in certain lights this looks browny/bronzey as. Too late to back out now i suppose.
Gaurds get rolled this morning then saturday it gets masked up properly and its paint time.

Shurrup karnt, you love the updates lolJonno wrote:x2 I've been waiting on some sort of sms notification on paint completion lol
Not really dude, only really sprayed small s*#t at home, done alot of highfill though and the technique is pretty similar. Lessons learnt, base coat metallic is actually piss easy to spray, just need to dust it dry as. Clear is a c*#t of a thing - that and the beater kept pushing me to apply it "wetter". In hindsight i shouldve told him to f*#k off and put it on dryerBackToTheGem wrote:Good sh1t! I take it you've got a bit of experience spraying?
Dont let the pics fool you, yes the shine is absolutely ridiculous but there are a few runs here and there, mainly the rear doors - quarters came out fine. Had a chat with the 'beater this morning, its getting rubbed down in 1200 and flow-coated, so it should look f*#cking glossy as once thats done.
Apparently im a picky bastard and his not convinced ill be happy with the depth/shine if its just had the runs cut back and polished so flow-coat it is.

So, the other day they rubbed the clear down in preperation for flow coating. Panelbeater sends me an mms of it.
Farking thing looks brown
Anyway, f#*ker gets flow coated. Can now say it IS the right colour, just seems to come out three billion different colours in photos.
Now at home, and because i couldnt help myself...
