My Paint-job attempt..

Featured Replies

Just popped out to halfords and picked up a few bits, been practising on an old 6n2 bumper I had, results so far seem ok, I deliberately scratched the hell out of it, wet sanded it, cleaned it and have lacquered it (without paint). Will give the lacquer a couple of days to dry, cut it, polish it and post results

Was just too keen to get going, couldn't get any of the colour at short notice so just thought id practise with lacquer and get a decent finish, got some wheels to spray, will crack on with them next week
