How to - Spray a spoiler TWICE! (Pic Heavy) Updated 15th

Recommended Posts

In a mad moment of weakness I promised Buster I would spray his new spoiler as a birthday present :doh:

 

Anyway as everything is on hold as far as my projects are concerned and there has been a delay on the house extension we had a quiet weekend (especially as Buster is on holiday)

 

So the wife thought we should do the spoiler ..........................

 

 

 

Starting here

Heavy weight tools into action :scare:

Few little marks to sort out with some stopper

Then the basecoat

All good so far -

 

Then I did the clear coat OMG what a disaster - I tried a new jet and needle in my gun BIG MISTAKE!

 

I ended up with runs and a sag mark that you would not believe - It was so bad I didn't even take pics :blush:

 

So Sunday we sanded it down again!

A new coat of primer

Another try with the basecoat

Then another attempt at clear coat - this time with my normal setup - I'm happy to say this time it was worth taking some pics :)

Bob was back from holiday today and Mrs Keyser collected him at 11:15 brought him back to the ZedShed to help unload my new toolbox see -

Anyway after helping unload (thanks mate :thumbs:) off he went home to unpack and shower after 30 hours traveling!

 

We did of course show him his surprise - the now sprayed rear spoiler and would you believe he was back this after noon and in less than 6 hours from getting back he has already

shown that he has an incurable case of Zeditis -

 

 

Into the ZedShed
