Havnt updated for a while so here goes.
A small mishap ended up the rage taking over! Here is the result:
Re-sprayed my morette masks and centre caps.
Whilst cleaning out the morettes I found this!!!!!

Not what you expect to find. They have been sat for a long time and i never noticed when the 1st arrived! Now I have fitted 4 new replacement lamps. Pic to follow later. Another pain in the ass cost to find money for....but you cant have shitty, rusty lights fact. After all, its small things that make big differences.
Stripped and Prepped the mirrors/door handles.
After a colour mix up all my paint stuff arrived.....correct this time
Body panels have now taken up the garden for prepping and paint. The mrs is well happy

Nice collection of stonechips
Using the wheelie bins and garden chairs as benches, all panels bar the rear doors are ready for paint.
All the door shuts have now been rubbed down and etch primer applies where I've hit bare metal. The inside of the boot just needs scuffing up before paint.
Sideskirts need a small amount of final prep which I hope to do tonight when the other half gets home from work. Then ....thats the shell and the boot all ready for spraying.
I have also removed and resprayed the scuttle panel, wiper arms, door triangle's and the mirror base plates matt black. Pics to follow later.
I have couple days off work this week when I'm hoping to spray, however I am a bit apprehensive spraying while its so hot! Any tips from any painters about best time/conditions to spray would be appreciated. Its cellulose I've got with I think a 2 pack laquer. Any idea on flash times? I think 30 mins between coats in this weather is a bit long lol. Also, if its too hot am I at risk of paint blistering on hot bodywork?? Thanks for any help.
Comments/ideas welcome Cheers, Lee.
