Hi All,
A public holiday here yesterday and I spent most of it working on the D1.
Removed all 4 wheels, put some spare wheels on, sanded and painted all 4 wheels (2 coats each):
I then sanded back, cleaned and painted the A & B Pillars. This in itself took a while as I had to remove the Snorkel first - which was a real PITA...
Then I spent over an hour masking everything up - I used a piece of cardboard to help with straight edges / over spray. Quite happy with the result.
Here it is during the first (of 2) coats:
And lastly sanded back the bonnet and painted it a fifth coat... Not overly happy with the bonnet - I can't seem to get the striping out of it.
I think that I will wait a week, let the paint cure, sand it back and give it another go... The more coats the merrier!
Over all I spent from about 8am to 5pm working on the car... Now I need a break for a few days.
Cheers,
GG.
