Finally after a month of sanding the body shell of the #vk is painted. And I did it all myself! #bluemeanie #brock #commodore #holden #ss #group3 #blue #1B123
Fook me. Pity the fool that ends up buying this. And by the way. The paint finish doesn’t get better as it cures. If anything, as the solvents dry out, it shows all the poor preparation underneath.
Id get the scoop in primer an then fit it. Paint inside the boot an bonnet. Flip em an paint them both aswell as the feont guards. Then do the doors. Prime outside if arent already an paint the insides. Lay the doors flat an paint the outsides I do it everyday too, is a long process. 85% of painting is prep an cleaning
@@TAVOTravsDIYGarage if space is an issue ull have to halve the numbers but that what oder id paint everything, then bumpers an grille. GD work so far man, it gets FN tedious but more you put in the more you get out of it. It all comes down to how much time you have or how much patience you have seeing it in primer for so long
Get your brother to sand out the runs after they dry a couple of weeks, and rub back the complete car to 2000, then buff it it up. There will be dirt all through it considering you didn’t remask the car before painting and the general dirty state of the shed. There would of been dust in the air every time you pulled the trigger. As a minimum, wet the concrete floor before painting again.
@@TAVOTravsDIYGarage rub it back anyway. You have runs and it will flatten out the peel at the same time. You have come this far, a little bit more work will be worth the effort. Wait a couple of weeks to let the solvents dry out of the runs first.
