Cheers BIGS, my only second proper attempt really (first being my engine bay last year at the start of this project) so I'm over the moon with it :thumb: but I must re-iterate, it's soooo much better having a compressor that doesn't recharge two seconds after pulling the trigger :)
021 - I got the paint from Nottingham Bodyshop Supplies, and same with lacquer. Good thing about the lacquer is that its ready mixed, so goes straight into the airgun, which should make it trouble free - that should be done mid week ish. Cheers for comments :)

and whats the finish like on the f/g panels? im going to do mine soon and hoping they will come out ok
-
not quite as good as metal, but then again we didn't prepare the FG panels months ago when we first sprayed them... good enough for me :thumb: or will be once they have a mega shine from the lacquer :)
-
as long as it looks good and the track thats all that matters. not that they have time to look lol:thumb:
And was speaking to Rob with the mark2 white astra let known as sbd16v on the sites. and he said how impressed he was with the car and driving. so your getting noticed which is always a good thing.
anyway enough of me going on keep up the good work :thumb:
