Re: Update of Buggy with Piccies


rubbed it down a bit yesterday with P1200 to get rid of a few dodgy spots.
gonna take a few more days though.
Final coat is sooooooo much harder than primer coats.
god i am sick of sanding

Re: Update of Buggy with Piccies


so, decided to touch up acouiple of bits on paint then that is it.
need to start building it ready for next year.
put the shell back on the chassis today.
overall pleased with the result but need to plan (and save) to give it a proper coat soon.

I'm guessing your not that happy with it yourself Bri, is it dust, runs or just a bit flat? Very few paintjobs are perfect out of the gun, a good buffing is often required.
