first build up coat came up very well all repairs turned out great , next is the turn of the van owen nw
couple of runs , but it has to be flattened agin for the final coats
bumpers and number plate panel done , well all the filling , 2k primed flatted and base coated , next stone chip the inside of these then paint owen nw
to day it was the turn odf the wings , well one of them the worst one , which is still very good . i cut out the areas of rust cleaned everything back , then done some innner frame repairs first , when the inners were done i painted the insides , letting then dry while i made the repair panels , welded these on and , buffed down , flatten the pain over the wing and skimmed up . owen nw
now have the wing filled and done , until my great dane knocked it over so i had to stopper a few bits and prep the back side of the wing ,. now in red lead , just now to seam seal and stone chip before a colour coat is applied owen nw
Well done, Owen: home straight now with the body by the looks of it.
I think it's a great credit to you, especially seeing the conditions in which you're working. It's a lovely stage when you realise that the colour sanding is out of the way, and all of a sudden the bodywork's done.
Best of luck with the last of the paint stages .
