Bay was going to get painted today, but the paint shop rang and said they need to order some special bits in to make the paint up as its a Cryllic? type of paint (the one up after the pearl) so it will be here Tuesday instead

Really cant wait to see the colour on the car!

[Chris.]

Picked paint up today and magic things happened.

This is it out the sun:


move into the sun and:




Well got the bay pushed into the booth and cleaned down, panel wiped, masked etc.



Here she is with just the basecoat on




Dropped some lacquer on it and different color again!



And a couple close ups of the smoothed work







Really pleased with it,  cant wait to see it in the sunlight tomorrow when it comes alive!

[Chris.]

Couple of pics in the sun. - The sparkle in the paint is unreal.






Wings and a couple other bits getting painted tomorrow.
