  4. Pretty cool idea

  6. Sunday bumpty bumpy bump bump bump
  7. I've used few different primers - as far as I could tell-they all same! Even halfords one will do! Not sure about colours and shades...I got "paintstore" not far from me, they great at mixing paints and do have booklets with every possible colour! Just search tinternernet and you'll find something
  8. Just don't spray too close (to avoid runs) and leave it to dry-and you'll be fine Good luck
  9. For the metal I would use primer for the metal...not sure what's the difference between them 2, but I guess there is since 2 different types of primer lol Layers of paint- ones everything is fully painted, that should do! I'm not body-shop specialist, but try sure you don't want it to be to thick... Lol Lacquer- same...ones you get that glossy clear finish - that will do as well...hard to say about layers - as everyone sprays at different angle/distance which will make layers thicker/thinner...just do it by the eye I would say! something like strut bar towers- may be better to consider to get them powder coated as normal paint might chip away at places where you bolt it down-due to pressure...unless you really carefull:) that's my opinion, someone might be more professional and will correct me
  10. Just make sure surface is clean, so no oil etc on it. Sand it down a little bit with something like 600 grit sand paper, prime it and sand it down again with 1200-1500 grit, then prime it again, sand it down and spray. Why prime it few times? I find it helps to get rid of tiny scratches...as primer basically fills them in,...sometimes they really hard to see...but ones painted and lacquered - they will be more visible! Also try to use sanding block or something flat to wrap sanding paper around - to give you flat sanding serface. I think white primer works the best - as it will bring colour up, make it a bit brighter. Would also recommend to lacquer bits as well to give them that shiny glossy look. PlastiKote 2k clear lacquer is pretty good. Spray (primer/paint/lacquer) is few thin coats instead of 1 thick - makes it easier to dry etc. I would leave 30mins-1hr between coats and leave overnight to dry All common sense really If you dont have any local paint stores that can mix you some paint, www.paints4u.com can do it for you if you provide paint code Nothing to worry about when taking strut bar off.... its as straight forward as it looks, takes few mins Good luck
