Hows it looking, Still a few weeks and a long way to go but the general idea is there, also removed the extended widebody arches, and am going to put in wheel arch extenders, ill get more mud this way.
Nah i sanded to a 400 grit on an electric sander and used a red oxide primer. Paint is going on very thinly as i like to do it that way, even if it dont hide the colour that well first time, Stops sags and runs.
Its going on slightly [atchy but im having her proffessionally laquered with a satin laquer next month, just so long as the prep work and colour are done it keeps the cost down. The laquer will even everything up fine.
I once painted an old, silver, mk5 Cortina with a paint roller. We had just moved on to a fairly posh estate (at the time) and my neighbours were horrified that I was painting it on the drive! I've never seen so many curtains twitching!
get yourself to aldi mate and buy one of their compressors for about £60
they come with a 5 piece accessory kit including spray gun, i bought one from there a year ago and i have painted a pug 306 with it and it did a great job + they also sell the air drills,sanders,wrenches all cheaply.
very handy piece of kit.
