Top work Dan.
I do like that colour! I know what you mean when you said it will go really well with the wheels now!!!
Thanks for all the positive replies chaps, starting to feel abit better now, spoke to my mate who owns a body shop, went through every detail of my operation and i think he summed up my fatal mistake, basically on the last coat i should of applied it thicker with this stuff as the last coat i put on didnt sink in properly. There are a thousand other reasons as rexy has said to me but this sounds to correct considering the other area's came out fine and i didnt adjust anything inbetween. Also the fact the second coat was awesome and i fatally decided on a third as i had the paint in the gun.
As regards the colour i am sure on a sunny day it will look different again lol if we get a decent day i will get some proper pics that show the blending etc. Today just before leaving for home i attacked the top of the front wing with some 1200 paper and by god this paint is hard, but it will stop me rubbing through to easy, and it does appear to be flatting ok going by my brief stint so i may salvage it without doing another coat :)
Looks good dude, I was gonna say just get in a start flatting it but you clearly have. Just be carefull using the 1200, stay away from all the edges and keep it nice and wet.
Good work.
i always like to keep it nice and wet ;)Quote:

Just shows that these jobs can be tackled successfully by beginners

Colours is ace, you were right i do like it looks totally different and thats without trying pmsl. Cant wait to see it builtup :D
looking good mate, put a bit of fairy liquid in with the water your using when flatting it with the 1200 grit mate, help's no end ! get the machine polisher on the go after and it should look sound, best of luck !
