going to start a post on my other project im working on the green meanie in my sig... its a serious toy

i want to get this part done and dusted and out the way so i can then rebush it with polies and then look at supercharging it in july.

intrestingly jyst sharing some information.. ive been told do not use barcoat but to flatten to bare metal dust etch then prime as normal to get a good start for basecoat aparently barcoat isnt the best to get a good starting block

cool cheers for the tip. ill pop out and grab some

i thought about barcoat but decided to go with a totall flat back to metal and etch prime from scratch. i want to see whats under the bad paint rather than hide it away it may be nothing just bad painting by whoever done it. but if a panel needs replacing id rather do it now

the sad state shes in at the moment. already started putting it right, plenty more sanding to do lol doubt any paint but etch primer will be laid before next week. id love to know what it was painted with just one of those things you don't know till you start watch this space people

painted wheel lips. next step with these is mask up and matt black the insides hit a major issue today started to lay basecoat on the car and it seems its had a crash repair done before looked perfect before I started but as soon as I started to lay the basecoat it lifted the old paint right down to the original paint. I could use a sealer but the best and right way is to rub it right back etch primer and start fresh ( going with the attitude why hide some ones bad work when it can be repaired

couple of more pics, first lips of wheels ready for paint just applied the etch primer now a glimpse of a mirror under light not compounded yet but gives an idea of the pearl colours in the paint, this is under direct light so it shouldn't flip between light blue dark blue and purple quite as much on the car

been glorious the past few days but its starting to turn. zeds in booth nice and dry ready to go so not too fussed now lol ;-)

due tot lack of extractor ive gota fair bit of flatting a polishing to do but reckon the end result will be worth the effort

cheers for the replies guys ill get some more pics up once ive painted the shell this weekend

bumpers skirts mirrors boot spoiler roof side panels all painted. body goes in on saturday then its rebuild flatten and polish. ordered some canards for the front bumper today also

lol

respray started. new colour is fantasy blue similar to azur but with a lot more pearl content. all bodywork done by me so savin a fortune :-)

ok cool ill remember that cheers B
