My mk1 is going suede, but it's going to be a proper job. Usual primer, sealer, base coat, colour and a lacquer with flatting agent to go for ~30% gloss. All done in a spray booth

Longer lasting, better finish and more durable than roller or rattle cans.

1990 mk2 GTD, boost, fuel, soot

1934 Ford Dragster, 200mph in 6 seconds.

Thanks Wherry, you big slag.  :kiss: I do have a question, if a car has the satin/matte paint unprotected, does it not run off or something?
