i had mine sprayed, if u can its best

 

mallard will go on ok with a brush as well if just for protection

if for concours though i would spray it

 

cheers mate yours looks sweet how long it take you to do yours did you rub down to bare metal

 

i originally cleaned the whole floor off with petrol back down to original stonechip then etch primed it, then mallard base then clear lacquer on top

this time i re did a few bits here and there with stone chip, then base and lacquer again

its a serious lot of work to bare metal it mate !!

cheers for pictures guys ur cars look real nice, will do mine sometime if a ever go back to ma garage and fix the escos
