  • After a very successful saturday after the lads came over and lent a hand (thanks boys) the golf is now seeing good days! and is looking realistic that i could have her all painted and together by sept 8th .

    the roof was sanded back and then re-primmered
    and the engine bay was sanded and had another coat or primmer put on and now has some spot putty to fill the tiny blemishes



    so after some more days prep the engine bay will be painted and the roof making it ever soooo sweeeet! can't wait

              Bonnets are SOOOOO hard to get right..

              They're big, flat and flimsy.

              • yeh they were just high spots...the bonnet is straight which is good but yeh it has some bits where the paint wasn't stripped properly in the first place and then is higher than the rest of the panel

                oh well i shall just disc it off or feather edge it all..

                I WANT COLOUR!!!! (*!^#!%^$#&!*&! P

                      • look at my sick paint! group 3 b!tches

                        WEEEEEE!!! so i have some colour! ok so i'm not happy with some spots and i missed some too. tomorrow I will rub it back in the spots i mucked up and then re-spray it and then clear it...

                        this paint has no clear on it so it doesn't look right...no gloss...and because its a pearl it need to be cleared.

                        these shots were taken when it was dark because it took me all day to get it done

                        looks much better in person






                        so tomorrow when i rub it back and then clear it it will be a bit lighter and a lot glossier can't wait for the finished product!
