Colour really sings in the sun/flash - should be even better when lacquered. :)

Big thanks to Graham Kidd for working so hard today – it must have taken us two hours to mask the stripes, plus loads more of Graham spraying, flatting, lacquering. Awesome!

Should all be finished tomorrow (Thursday). Cannot wait to see it unmasked and in the sunshine! 8)

Newly painted shells really do look the business. I think you will be smiling a lot tomorrow.

Now get those greasy finger marks all over it and put it back together! Oh and the odd scratch ...... :)
