Cheers for that guys.
Yep iam catching you up Till
Anyway here is how she looks as of today:
Thats one of the worst jobs done, thats all the polyester rubbed down and then it was ready for the primer, which i did today.
Now that it is all primed its time to guide coat it then the very slow job of wet flatting it all down, hopefully it will be painted by next weekend
